Neuron - structure and function
Synaptic transmission - pt 2
6. summation: if there are more excitatory neurotransmitters then an electrical impulse is generated - this is called excitatory postsynaptic potential
7. summation: if there are more inhibitory neurotransmitters then no electrical impulse is generated - this is called inhibitory postsynaptic potential
8. if there are any neurotransmitters left over in the synapse after summation then they will go back to the synaptic vesicles in the presynaptic neuron - this is called reuptake
