Synaptic Transmission: 20. What is a synapse?
21. Explain the concepts of threshold, ‘all or none’ response, inhibitory and excitatory
neurotransmitters, and summation as they relate to synaptic transmission.
22. Label these major components of a synapse: presynaptic membrane, postsynaptic membrane,
synaptic cleft, synaptic vesicle, axon bulb, neurotransmitter, calcium ions and contractile proteins
23. What is a neurotransmitter?
24. Number the following events for synaptic transmission in the correct order
____ An action potential is stimulated at the postsynaptic membrane and impulse travels down dendrite
____ An enzyme cleaves the neurotransmitter substance and clears out the synaptic cleft
____ Impulse reaches synapse from the axon
____ Impulse stimulates synaptic vesicles to move to presynaptic membrane
____ Neurotransmitter substance diffuses across the cleft
____ Neurotransmitter substance fits into receptor sites on postsynaptic membrane
____ Synaptic vesicles dump neurotransmitter substance into synaptic cleft
