Match the description with the statement that best describes the following regions dendrites A. elongated projection that conducts electrical signals over long distances B. receives input from other neurons axon hillock C. "region of high denisty of voltage-gated channels, known as the trigger zone" ахon D. contains numerous vesicles containing neurotransmitter synaptic knob
Ordinarily, a neuron’s trigger zone is activated before any other part ofan axon, so a wave of action potentials occurs as sodium channelsopen in the direction of the synaptic terminal. What would happen ifyou artificially stimulated an axon to reach threshold potential midwayalong its length rather than at the trigger zone?a. Action potentials would occur in the direction of the synapticterminal.b. No action potentials would occur.c. Action potentials would occur in the direction of the trigger zone.d. Both a and c are correct.
Parkinson’s disease is a devastating, progressive disorder ofthe central nervous system. Damage to dopaminergic nervetracts in the brain causes tremors and impaired musclecoordination. An early-onset (inherited) form of the diseasehas been linked to a defective protein, now called parkin.Parkin has E3 activity. Describe, in general terms, howneurons with this defective protein are damaged.
