PPT-What are receptor neurons?

Specialized neurons that respond to physical or chemical stimuli Respond by changing ion channels altering graded potentials High graded potential at receptor ending causes rapid firing of its afferent neuron. a. b. c.

Synapses rarely involve just 2 neurons. neurotransmitters (chemicals) are released into the synapse by axon terminal of the pre-synaptic neuron. neurotransmitters stimulate the dendrites on post-synaptic neurons or receptors on effectors.
