Best Answer

Yes a neuron will always respond to the binding of neurotransmitters released from another cell (synaptic transmission being the 'impulse'). Depending on which neurotransmitter was bound, the postsynaptic potential of the membrane will become either more positive or more negative. It is the summation of these inputs and membrane potentials that determine whether the cell will subsequently fire an action potential.

What is the sequence of a typical reflex arc?

1. The receptor reacts to a stimulus. 2. The sensory neuron conducts the afferent impulses to the CNS. 3. The integration center consists of one or more synapses in the CNS. 4. The motor neuron conducts the efferent impulses from the integration center to an effector. 5. The effector, muscle fibers or glands, respond to the efferent impulses by contraction or secretion a product, respectively.
