5 Questions1 MinutesCreated by JumpingBrain273

Neurotransmitters are released from the

Dendrites

Presynaptic neuron

Post-synaptic neuron

Axon

Calcium is responsible for

Signaling the release of the neurotransmitter

Signaling Na to be released into the membrane

Signaling the release of K out of the membrane

Serving as the neurotransmitter

What is a characteristic of axons in motor neurons?

When there is a resting potential, the outside of the axon is negative relative to the inside.

During an action potential, Na+ ions diffuse out of the axon.

K+ ions diffusing out of the axon repolarizes it.

Impulses in the axon travel towards the cell body.

Which of the following uses ACTIVE transport?

Sodium-potassium pump

Diffusion

Potassium channel

Sodium channel

Example for neurotransmitter secreted at inhibitory synapse in the brain is

Glutamate

GABA

Histamine

Acetylcholine
