HCS 2050 SLO 166 Describing impulse transmission at the synapse including the function of several neurotransmitters and the role of cellular receptors in the action of neurotransmission Synapse. How signals are sent through the nervous system. Synapse. Synapse. = Junction between . two. connecting neurons. Synaptic cleft-between the neurons,. signal has to go across this space. Signals need to be sent . A new approach to Artificial Intelligence. Why is creating an . Artifical. Bran difficult?. There are HUGE differences between brain architecture and computer architecture. The difficulty to emulate one system on another system increases linear with the number of differences in architecture between the two systems.. 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 . Synapse. : space between a neuron’s axon and it’s target. Also called synaptic cleft.. Pre. synaptic neuron: before cleft . Post. synaptic neuron: after cleft. Presynaptic.
