SYNA Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Definitions- Synapsessynaptic transmission - correct answer process of transferring info from one cell to another at a synapse electrical synapse - correct answer synapse in which electric current flows from one cell to another via a gap function chemical synapse - correct answer synapse in which presynaptic activity stimulates the release of a neurotransmitter, which activates receptors in the postsynaptic membrane (in the brain) synapse - correct answer specialized junction where one ...

Primate Cladogram LCAs & Synapomorphies verified already passed 2024/2025 Primate Synapomorphies - correct answer Large brain Shorter snouts (due to lowered dependence on olfaction and higher dependence on vision) Forward facing orbits Post orbital bar Opposable hallux Nails instead of claws Characteristics of LCA of Strepsirhines - correct answer Tooth comb Grooming claw Characteristics of LCA of Haplorhines - correct answer Loss of tupetum Lucidum (reduced night vision) so...

An organism with chloroplasts in its cells is probably. a. a heterotroph b. an autotroph c. an herbivore d. a primary consumer - ANSWERSB: Organisms that have chloroplasts in their cells carry on photosynthesis and are therefore autotrophs. Autotrophs make their own food.
