✓ a specialized area within the axon of the presynaptic cell that
contains neurotransmitters enclosed in small membrane-bound spheres
called synaptic vesicles
information flow through neurons
ANS:
✓ dendrites receive information, cell body integrates and generates
outgoing signal, information is summated at the axon hillock, axon
carries action potential to synaptic bouton, synaptic bouton releases
neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft where they diffuse across and
interact with the post-synaptic cell (neuron or effector cell)
EPSP
ANS:
✓ excitatory post synaptic potential- closer to an action potential,
depolarizing
IPSP
ANS:
✓ inhibitory post synaptic potential - further from an action potential,
polarizing
action potential

5.0
ANS:
✓ the all-or-none electrical signal that travels down a neuron's axon -
result of the spatial/temporal summation of EPSPs and IPSPs
neuroplasticity
ANS:
✓ - change in the properties of neurotransmission
✓ - change in cell properties
✓ - structural/anatomical changes of cells
change in properties of neurotransmission
ANS:
✓ - change in NT release
✓ - change in post-synaptic potential size/shape
change in cell properties
ANS:
✓ - size and shape
✓ - electrical properties (resistance)
✓ - leakiness
