Carries signals from skin, muscle, bones, and joints TO the brain

Stored electrical charge

Where the sodium comes from as it sits under the sodium gate

An inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain

Multiple potentials from one neuron in a given time

Made up of the nerves and ganglia

The charge on the inside of the cell

Voltage spikes to this when sodium rushes inside cell

Is released to take the signal to the postsynaptic cell

Process of adding up postsynaptic potentials

Has one axon and one set of dendrites

Signal from dendrites to soma

The resistance to stimulation to keep the signal moving in one direction

Employs acetylcholine as it's neurotransmitter to excite skeletal muscle and inhibit cardiac muscle

Neural circuit where signal divides from one input to a large output

insulating layer around nerve fiber that speeds up electrical signals

They are graded and decremental

The ion that brings the voltage back down to -70 mv after the spike

Shuts down a circuit and blocks receptors to prevent signal going to the next cell

Simultaneous stimulation by multiple neurons, getting signals from multiple locations

Small macrophages in CNS that get rid of foreign material

States that if threshold is reached, the neuron fires at maximum voltage

Threshold voltage for action potential

Time of arrival of signal at axon terminal to beginning of action potential in postsynaptic cell.

Nervous system converting information into meaningful patterns of action potentials
