What Effects May a Neurotransmitter Have on the Postsynaptic Membrane?
Question by 2 ears, 1 mouth: What effects may a neurotransmitter have on the postsynaptic membrane?
What is the actual cause of these effects?
Best answer:
Answer by leafsobsessed
different ones have different effects: here’s an interactive site that tells you more detail http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/addiction/drugs/mouse.html
however, usually, the neurotransmitter (acetylcholine, eg) binds to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane (on the next cell), opens sodium channels on the membrane of that cell. sodium ions flood in, and the cell depolarizes (excitation) so that spreading activation can occur and the signal from the presynaptic cell is spread to the next one.
What Would Be the Best Addiction Treatment Program?
Question by bayley n_n: What would be the best addiction treatment program?
What are the components that should be present in an addiction treatment program?
Best answer:
Answer by andie l
First of all, addiction treatment programs are not just about medication. It’s not all about anti-depressants and mood stabilizers. There must be continued care and supervision. There must also be counseling and therapy. There must be a periodical assessment to keep track of the progress of the patient. The intensity and length of the treatment of the patient depends upon the severity of his drug addiction.
How Can I Change and Mould the Character of Boys in a Hostile Christian Community?
Question by KD53: How can I change and mould the character of boys in a hostile Christian community?
I have registered 28 boys between the ages of 5 and 15 in a community which is hostile to Christianity. In this era of terrorism, armed robbery, drug addiction, homosexuality, suicide bombings, and other social vices, my aim is to inculcate into them Christian virtues and principles so that their life style can have an impact on their peers and the community as a whole. What topics should I consider when counselling them? Any other suggestions or help will be highly appreciated.
