(synapses) inhibitory neurotransmitters - ANS-hyperpolarise postsynaptic membrane so potential difference is more negative, preventing an action potential from firing / eg GABA opens Cl- channels so hyperpolarises membrane (synapses) synapse definition - ANS-a junction between neurones and effectors (synapses) process - ANS-action potential reaches pre-synaptic knob and triggers release of neurotransmitters from vesicles / diffuse across synaptic cleft to post-synaptic neurone or effec...
