-RMPMost neurons have same basic structure - correct answer A cell body with a number of dendrites and one long axon with its terminals. What is the defining characteristic of neurons? - correct answer Have the property of electrical excitability • Ability to produce action potentials or impulses in response to stimuli • Have the property of electrical conductivity • Ability to propagate action potentials or impulses What is the function of different parts of neuron? - correct answer...

Equilibrium Potential and RMP The Neuron - correct answer Is compartmentalized Dendrite and soma are responsible for receiving the input signals Axons are responsible for sending out the signals to the terminals Uphill vs. Downhill gradient - correct answer Uphill= active, consumes body's energy ATP Downhill= passive, does not consume body's energy (no ATP used) Equilibrium potential - correct answer When electrical force (diffusion potential) increases to the point that it exac...

NSCI 175 Final Exam Review. Questions with complete Answers 2023 Explain Why Progress in science is often slow -Because experiments take time and the process of observation, replication, interpretation, and verification is exhaustive. It also takes time to get published and for the new information to become widespread. Explain the Reductionist Approach: - How is the Approach? Is the process of breaking down the enormous problem of understanding how the brain works into smaller pieces ...
