The image below shows a synapse between the axon terminal of one neuron and the dendrite of another neuron. Use it to answer the following
If the chemical-gated sodium (Na+)channels in the dendrite of the postsynaptic neuron open, what will occur in the post-synaptic neuron? An EPSP (excitatory post-synaptic potential) will begin An IPSP (inhibitory post-synaptic potentiallwill begin Nat will exit the post-synaptic neuron The membrane will hyperpolarize
Consider a synapse between a somatic motor neuron and a skeletal muscle cell. A toxin binds to and prevents calcium voltage-gated channels in the motor neuron from opening. A. How would this toxin affect the process of secretion at this synapse? (1 point) B. What symptoms might the patient experience as a result of this toxin? (1 point)
