One term for it is potentiation.


The neural basis for learning and remembering associations?

long-term potentiation


What does long term potentiation theory refer to?

an increase in a neuron's firing potential.


Are there different types of synaptic plasticity?

Yes, there are two main types of synaptic plasticity: long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD). LTP strengthens synaptic connections, while LTD weakens them. These processes play a crucial role in learning and memory formation in the brain.


The process by which the hippocampus encodes memories and prepares them for long-term storage is called?

long-term potentiation.


What does Long-term potentiation involve?

The strength of the connection between two neurons is increased when they are simultaneously stimulated.


What is an example of potentiation?

something on the top of a hill about to go down


When you are forming memories the neurons and the connections between them strengthen?

short-term memory-apex long-term potentiation.


What neurotransmitter does long-term potentiation depend on?

Long-term potentiation (LTP) primarily depends on the neurotransmitter glutamate, specifically its activation of NMDA receptors to initiate the signaling cascade that underlies the strengthening of synaptic connections. Dopamine and other neurotransmitters also play modulatory roles in LTP.


The neural basis for learning and remembering associations involves the strengthening of potential neural firing and is called?

long-term potentiation


What happens to your synaptic system if you don't use them?

If we don't use our synaptic system that leads to short term potentiation i.e short term memory. short term and long term memory depends on maintenance of synaptic potentiation. so if we don't use our synaptic system no new nerve cell for saving info will not be generated.
