Cholinergic synapses Use the neurotransmitter accty, choline :
>Found in the CNS and neuromuscular
junction
Is
hydrolysed by acetylcholinesterase to produce Chlorine and ethanoic acid
Role of Synapses :
Ensure impulses are unidirectional
·Allow
divergence -> transmission into several neurones
-Allow stransmission into
convergence one neurone
Spatial Summation :
Several
Presynaptic neurones Connect to one postsynaptic neurone .
Temporal Summation One :
single presynaptic neurone releases several neurotransmitters
by several action
potentials triggered in a short period of time
Drugs Mimick the shape of the neurotransmitters
Stimulating more neurotransmitters

-
Blocking receptors
