16
Q

retrograde

A

axon to cell body

17
Q

local

A

starter signal, capacity to spring and send

18
Q

action

A

huge, long distance messages, big change of polarity

19
Q

WHAT ARE THE CHARGES INSIDE/OUTSIDE OF CELL

20
Q

NA and K

A

3 NA out for every 2 K in

21
Q

What is depolarization?

A

creating equal charges in and out of cell

22
Q

Depolarize

A

Excitatory, increased chance of long distance

23
Q

Hyper-polarize

A

Inhibiting, decreased chance of long distance

24
Q

receptor (modality0gated)

A

some in, small change

25
synaptic (ligand-gated)
neurotransmitter connects with ligand lets flow - small change - can work with
26
temporal summation
little pushes
27
spatially
Big push
28
AP is what kind of message?
long distance message - cell body to axon (voltage-gated)
29
Where can an AP start?
hillock and trigger zone - both voltage-gated
30
passive means?
long axon moved quickly
31
active means?
far enough to create next AP
32
What happens in refractory period?
spill than resets
33
unmyelinated in location to each other?
right next to one another
34
myelinated
far away
35
Bipolar Neuron
2 major trunks, dendrite and axon - light info
36
pseudo unipolar
peripheral axon, central axon - somato sensory
37
multipolar
multiple dendrite, one axon - brain, somatic motor
38
interneuron
extraordinarily tiny, 4 dendrite, from axon to another dendrite and can modify messages
