What else can I help you with?
What is the chemical secreted into the gap between neurons at the synapse?
The answer is NEUROTRANSMITTER.
What is the relationship between drugs and the transmission of neurotransmitters?
Drugs can impact neurotransmitter transmission by either mimicking or blocking the action of neurotransmitters at the synapse. For example, drugs like cocaine can block the reuptake of neurotransmitters like dopamine, leading to increased neurotransmitter levels in the synapse. This alteration in neurotransmitter levels can result in changes in brain function and behavior.
What type of synapse uses neurotransmitter?
Chemical Synapse
What is the name of the small space between two neurons where neurotransmitter molecules are released?
The small space between two neurons where neurotransmitter molecules are released is called the synapse.
Does a neurotransmitter carry ATP across a synapse?
no
What is the role of neurotransmitter at a chemical synapse?
exocytosis
A postsynaptic potential is a graded potential that is the result of a neurotransmitter released into the synapse between two neurons?
true
Space between nerve cells is called?
The space between nerve cells is called a synapse. It is the junction where electrical signals are transmitted from one nerve cell to another through neurotransmitter molecules.
What do you call the chemical released by the axon that travels across a synapse and binds on the dendrites of the other neurons or body cells?
The chemical released by the axon that travels across a synapse and binds to dendrites or cells is called a neurotransmitter. Neurotransmitters play a crucial role in transmitting signals between neurons and regulating various physiological processes in the body.
What is the area between neurons across which nerve impulses travel?
no, synapse. node of ranvier is between axon and dendrites
Drugs act at the synapse by?
affecting neurotransmitter release, blocking neurotransmitter reuptake, or binding to neurotransmitter receptors. This alters the signaling between neurons and can have various effects on mood, behavior, and other physiological processes.
What is the small space between one neuron and the next is called?
A synapse, chemical signals called neurotransmitters cross these gaps, carrying on the signal.
