When did Frozen Synapse happen?
Frozen Synapse happened in 2011.
Which part of neuron release or send chemical messengers?
The part of the neuron where neurotransmitters are released from is the axon terminal, and they are released into a small space between neurons called the Synapse.
Why are enzymes important chemicals in digestive juices?
to break down larger molecules into simpler molecules of food components
What will happen if hisher neurons failed to produced neurotransmitters?
he she will die!
What is the sequence of events in the process of synaptic transmission?
Neurons communicate with each other by sending electrical signals across a synapse. In a three neuron loop the series of events that happen in synaptic transmission are as follows: Neuron 1 sends an electrical signal (action potential) down its axon towards the synapse. The action potential causes the release of neurotransmitters (chemicals) from the terminal button of Neuron 1 into the synaptic cleft. The neurotransmitters bind to the receptors of Neuron 2. This binding triggers a new action potential in Neuron 2 which travels down its axon. The action potential causes the release of neurotransmitters (chemicals) from the terminal button of Neuron 2 into the synaptic cleft. The neurotransmitters bind to the receptors of Neuron 3. This binding triggers a new action potential in Neuron 3 which travels down its axon. The action potential causes the release of neurotransmitters (chemicals) from the terminal button of Neuron 3 into the synaptic cleft. The neurotransmitters bind to the receptors of Neuron 1 closing the loop.This series of events is repeated continuously allowing for the communication between neurons in a three neuron loop.
List and define the three types of synapses?
chemical synapse operation at the transmitter Electrical Ionic Flow. At the synapse the following things happen Divergence and synaptic neuron
What will happen to a person if his neurons fail to produce neurotransmitters?
The nervous system can't transmit messages without neurotransmitters. A person will die if his neurons fail to produce them.
What are the two elements needed for neural communication to happen?
Neural communication requires an electrical signal to travel down the axon of a neuron, which is generated by changes in ion concentrations across the cell membrane. At the synapse, neurotransmitters are released from the presynaptic neuron and received by receptors on the postsynaptic neuron to transmit the signal.
Enzymes control this aspect of chemical reactions?
Enzymes as such do not control things directy. However, the rate of a biochemical reaction can be controlled by enzymes.
What might happen if your body lacked neurotransmitters?
your erves cells could not communicate with one another
What will happen to the next nerve cell whet it gets 'hit' by neurotransmitters?
exited to transmit the signal
What would happen if the enzymes stopped functioning?
it will be explosive
