opening =>repolarization

All or None

• Neurotransmitter

_____________________________________________________

• AP arrives at ____________________________=>

• Opens ______________________________ channels=>

• _______________________ into cell

• increased ______________________________ =>

• exocytosis of ____________________________=>

• Neurotransmitter released into _____________________

• Diffuse across and bind to _____________________ in postsynaptic cell

membrane

• Chemical trigger of ______________________________________

• May _________________________ or ____________________________

postsynaptic cell membrane

• If ______________________________reached at axon hillock then postsynaptic

cell ________________________________-- results

• Finally the _________________________________________________ must be

removed from the cleft-

• Diffusion away

• Destroyed by enzymes in cleft

• Transport back into _____________________________________

• _________________________________ destruction

Neurotransmitters
