Where do transporter proteins transport neurotransmitters to?

How does a neuron “decide” to fire an action potential?

Why is nitric oxide a unique neurochemical?

Describe the chemical events that occur at the synapse that are the basis for communication between neurons. Be sure to include the following terms/concepts with definitions/explanations:  exocytosis, reuptake, enzymatic degradation, diffusion, retrograde transporters, and autoreceptors. NOTE: You won’t earn credit by just typing the textbook explanation or the information from class slides word-for-word. Your job is to convince me that you understand it, and the only way to do that is by using your own explanation. Make sure you explain each term/phrase above; don’t just use them in a sentence. Using bullet points instead of complete sentences is fine so long as all the necessary information is provided.

If you were explaining neurotransmission, you would indicate that neurochemicals are typically stored in _____ of the _____ neuron.

What do autoreceptors keep track of?

Postsynaptic potentials are ___ while action potentials are ___.

If I gave you a drawing of neurons, how would you label the area between two neurons?
