OCCTH 585 Midterm 1 Latest Version Already Passed evidence for a plastic brain - learning and memory - skill acquisition - development - aging - injury and disease - recovery neuron cell that allows transmission of information dendrites collects/receives information from other sources cell body integrates incoming signals and generates outgoing signal to the axon; powerhouse of the cell axon passes electrical signals (action potential) to dendrites of another cell or to...

A wife refers her husband for substance abuse counseling. His drug of choice is cocaine which he has been using episodically with friends at a poker game (biweekly to weekly) for some years. She is disturbed at the illicit nature of the drug and the long standing use. He stated that though he recreationally uses, he doesn't crave cocaine, doesn't seek it out but rather uses with friends at the game who bring it. He feels that other than his wife being upset, he has no other social or occup...

_____ bring a cell to threshold while _____ bring a cell further from threshold - ️️EPSPs; IPSPs Describe the mechanism of fusimotor drive - ️️muscle spindles are parallel to extrafusal fibres; the extrafusal fibres shorten when they contract, and the gamamotorneuron causes the intrafusal fibres to contract in order to maintain tension in the centre of the muscle spindle so it is still able to detect muscle stretch thoughout the entire ROM What things determine the type of cell tha...
