Question
The BLUE boxes with "neuronz/x/y" are what i THINK the answeres are. Please answer the prompt and rearange the blue boxes if needed.
Three neurons form synapses, as shown in this diagram. The changes in the membrane potential of a postsynaptic neuron are monitored as the other three neurons fire action potentials. Given the following information, deduce the identity of each of the three neurons and drag its label into the appropriate box. 1. When neuron X fires, the membrane depolarizes. 2. When neurons X, Y, and Z all fire, the membrane depolarizes less than when only X fires 3. When neuron Z fires, the membrane hyperpolarizes. 4. When neurons X and Y fire, the effect is the same as when only neuron X fires. 2 tives he membrae io t ae when only neuron Xfres. Neuron Y Neuron Z Membrane potential NeuronX Neuron X Neuron Y Neuron ZExplanation / Answer
Neurons talk to each other at the synapses.When an action potential reaches the presynaptic terminal,it causes neurotransmitter to be released from the neuron into the synaptic cleft, a 20-40nm gap between the presynaptic axon terminal and post synaptic dendrite
Synapses can be taught of as converting an electrical signal (action potential) into a chemical signal in the form of neurotransmitter release,and then,upon binding of the transmitter to the post synaptic receptor switching the signal back again into the electrical form,as charged ions flow into or out of the post synaptic neuron
2.when neurons X,Y,Z all fire, the membrane depolarizes less than when only X fires
