What happens to the neurotransmitters that fail to attach to a receptor site?

In a process called reuptake, they are reabsorbed by sending the neuron and recycled.

Are neurotransmitters that depress the resting potential called excitatory?

No, neurotransmitters that depress the resting potential are called inhibitory neurotransmitters. Excitatory neurotransmitters have the opposite effect, causing depolarization and increasing the likelihood of an action potential.


Where do neurotransmitters go when they reach the end of a neuron?

Neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft when they reach the end of a neuron. From there, they bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, initiating a new electrical signal to continue the communication process. Some neurotransmitters may be recycled back into the presynaptic neuron or broken down by enzymes.


Natural opiatelike neurotransmitters linked to pain control and to pleasure?

This class of neurotransmitters is called endorphins.


Chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron are called?

nuerotransmitter


What are neurotransmitters that affect a neuron's response to other neurotransmitters called?

These are typically known as neuromodulators; they can either change the rate at which a neurotransmitter is released, or alter the response to a certain neurotransmitters.


Where are neurotransmitters stored in the neuron?

Neurotransmitters are stored in small sacs called vesicles within the axon terminals of a neuron.


Action potentials trigger the release of chemicals in the terminal buttons called?

neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft to relay signals to the next neuron in the communication pathway.


Unused neurotransmitters are absorbed in a process called?

reuptake.


What are the instructons for a cell called?

Neurotransmitters, enzymes or hormones


Where in a neuron are neurotransmitters stored?

Neurotransmitters are stored in small sacs called vesicles located at the end of the axon terminal in a neuron.
