Question

resting neuron depolarizes axon molecules with electric charge[Choose polarized axon I Choose] sodium ions enter axon [ Choose ] molecules where neurotransmitters bind receptor specific to certain neurotransmitters ions outside and inside have different charges positive charge negative charge electrical impulse depolarizes axon potassium ions flow out of axon neurotransmitters absorbed by releasing axon sodium ions action potential after neurotransmitter release receptors I Choose l lock and key [Choose ] euntake

Explanation / Answer

resting neuron - difference between charges outside and inside cell membrane

molecules with electric charge - ions

polarized axon - potassium ions flow out

sodium ions enter axon -depolarizes axon

sodium ions - positive charge

action potential - electrical impulse( rapid rise and fall voltagege across cell)

after neurotransmitter release - negative charge

receptor - molecules where neurotransmitters bind

lock and key - receptor specific to certain neurotransmitters

reuptake -neurotransmitters absorbed by releasing axon
