NEURAL TRANSMISSION

• Differentiate neurons and glial cells.• Differentiate the 3 types of neurons.• Identify the parts of the neuron.• Explain how the action potential travels.• Explain synaptic transmission.• Identify the role of each neurotransmitter.

Nervous System Cells

Types of Neurons

• Sensory “Afferent”

• Motor “Efferent”

• Interneuron

Spinal Reflex

Parts of the Neuron

Postsynaptic Potential

Action Potential

All or None Law!

Varied Strength

Refractory Period

Synaptic Transmission

Neurotransmitters

Drugs that affect neural transmission
