PPT-Neurotransmitters Researchers have identified over 75 chemical

substances that are manufactured in the brain spinal cord glands and other parts of the body that may act as neurotransmitters Excitatory effects amp Inhibitory effects  Excitatory neurotransmitters trigger a nerve impulses in the receiving cell they speed up neuron communication while inhibitory neurotransmitters act to prevent further transmission of an impulsethey slow down neural communication . Lab# 1. From PNS to CNS. From CNS to PNS. Skeletal muscle . smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands. The main function is to connect CNS to the limbs and organs.. Consists : . A- nerves .

SLO: 1.6.6 – Describing impulse transmission at the synapse, including the function of several neurotransmitters and the role of cellular receptors in the action of neurotransmission. Synapse. Ms. . Carmelitano. Introduction. Neurons are the building blocks of behavior. The 10 to 100 billion neurons make about 13 trillion connections with each other over the synapses. Essential Question: How do messages cross the synapses?. Spinal cord. Transmits messages from the brain to the other areas of the body.. Efferent – away from the brain out to the body. Produces muscle action. Afferent – from the periphery to the brain. I.B. Learning Outcome. and Objective. B6- Using one or more examples, explain the effects of neurotransmission on human behavior..
