AP Biology Nervous Systems Part 3
2
Synapse and Neurotransmitter
3
Nerve Impulse is approaching the axon terminal by Saltatory Conduction
Schwann cell Depolarized region (node of Ranvier) Cell body Myelin sheath Axon
4
Synapse at the axon terminal
Postsynaptic cell Presynaptic cell Na+ Neuro- transmitter Synaptic vesicles containing neurotransmitter K+ Presynaptic membrane Postsynaptic membrane Ligand- gated ion channel Voltage-gated Ca2+ channel Postsynaptic membrane Ca2+ Synaptic cleft Ligand-gated ion channels
5
Post synaptic membrane
K+ Rising phase of the action potential K+ Falling phase of the action potential +50 Action potential Na+ Na+ Membrane potential (mV) –50 Threshold K+ Resting potential –100 Depolarization Time Na+ Na+ Extracellular fluid Potassium channel Activation gates Na+ K+ Plasma membrane Undershoot Cytosol Sodium channel K+ Inactivation gate Resting state
