|
The Resting Membrane usually has a charge of -70, and then through exitement the inside becomes +40, this process is called?
|
Action Potential
|
|
|
what is the membrane, or cell that is said to be charged?
|
Polarized
|
|
|
What is said to be Summation?
|
Summation is thesum effect of all neurotransmitters acting on a neuron.
|
|
|
What bis a Synapse?
|
A Synapse is a space between a neuron's axon and it's target.
|
|
|
What is Reception?
|
Reception is when the Dendrites are being stimulated by an environmental factor and a starting impulse.
|
|
|
The passage of the electrochemical impulses from the dendrites to the end plate along the axon is?
|
Processing.
|
|
|
what is the resting state?
|
The resting state is set up by a sodium and potassium pump. Causes high nconcentrationof NA+ and K+ inside, but gates are closed.
|
|
|
What is repolarization?
|
After the action potential moves through, the axon must restore the ion balance.
|
|
|
What is the all or none theory?
|
The neuron either responds fully, or not at all.
|
|
|
What is self - propagating?
|
Once started and impulse or reaction potential will move down the entire axon untik the end plate.
