What else can I help you with?
What does an axon release when an impulse reaches the end of it?
Neurotransmitters to the synapse and the neurotransmitters bind with the receptors releasing the second messengers.
What releases neurotransmitters into the synapse?
Neurotransmitters are released into the synapse by the presynaptic neuron.
What is the opposite of dopamine in terms of neurotransmitters?
The opposite of dopamine in terms of neurotransmitters is serotonin.
What is a product of living cells that circulates in blood and produces a specific stimulatory?
Hormones are the products of living cells that circulate in the blood and produce specific stimulatory responses in target cells or tissues. These chemical messengers play a crucial role in regulating various physiological processes in the body.
From where are neurotransmitters secreted?
Neurotransmitters are secreted from the axon terminals of neurons in the brain and nervous system.
Do neurotransmitters always cause hyperpolarization of the postsynaptic membrane?
No, many neurotransmitters cause the postsynaptic membrane to be depolarized.
How do stimulatory neurotransmitters affect the membrane potential of the postsynaptic membrane?
This really depends on the postsynaptic cell and the NT in question. Assuming you are talking about neuro-muscular interactions, the membrane potential moves from a more negative state to a more positive state.
Is acetylcholine stimulatory to cardiac muscle?
False
What is a stimulatory phalloid organ?
A stimulatory phalloid organ is basically the penis of specific birds. It is made up of connective tissue and is near the anterior of the cloaca.
Are Relay neurones inhibitory or stimulatory?
Relay neurons, also known as interneurons, can be either inhibitory or excitatory depending on their specific function and the neurotransmitters they release. Inhibitory relay neurons typically release neurotransmitters like gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which reduce the likelihood of action potentials in target neurons. On the other hand, excitatory relay neurons release neurotransmitters like glutamate, which increase the likelihood of action potentials. Thus, the role of relay neurons is context-dependent within neural circuits.
What is presynaptic inhibition?
Inhibition of a stimulatory neuron before it synapses, by inhibiting Ca2+ entry and blocking downstream processes, preventing neurotransmitter release, and therefore preventing the neuron generating and EPSP post-synaptically.
How does caffeine affect the heart?
Well, caffeine (like most pyschoactive drugs) exerts its effect on us by altering the activity of some of our neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are the nervous system's way of conveying messages between neurons, and also to muscle tissue. Some neurotransmitters that caffeine is known to increase the activity of are norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin. The increase in norepinphrine is likely what causes the heart rate to increase, however each of these neurotransmitters has some stimulatory effects. Norepinephrine, however, is a powerfully stimulating neurotransmitter; it is associated with the 'fight or flight' response, which of course includes an increased heart rate. Caffeine can also cause ectopics (extra beats) in the heart if you have too much
Are Alpha adrenergic effects usually stimulatory and mediatory?
yes, true
Are Alpha-adrenergic effects usually stimulatory and mediatory?
yes, true
What are the symptoms of overdose of substances with stimulatory effects?
Substances with stimulatory effects may dangerously increase the heart rate and blood pressure, increase body temperature, and cause bizarre behavior. With cocaine, there is a risk of stroke.
What do neurotransmitters open?
Neurotransmitters act on synapses.
What neurotransmitters are amino acids?
define amino acids in neurotransmitters
