This causes neuronal death by hyperexcitation to a greater extent in the hippocampus than in the cortex. Which reason best explains why the hippocampus is selectively vulnerable during global ischemia? A.The magnitude of action potentials is greater in hippocampal than cortical neurons. B.The expression of NMDA receptors is more abundant in hippocampal than cortical neurons. C.Hippocampal neurons generate a more negative postsynaptic potential than cortical neurons. D.Hippocampal synapses have faster neurotransmitter diffusion rates compared to cortical synapses. - ANSWER nmda receptor= glutamate
