psych 115 midterm 1 UCLA Exam Questions and Answers 100% Pass What is the role of Dorsal root ganglion cells? • DRG = unipolar neurons in peripheral nervous system • Job is to relay somatosensory info from skin to spinal cord Describe a touch stimulus. • Touch to skin generates a receptor potential by opening mechanoreceptor Na channels • Receptor potential passively propagates (flows) to the integration zone • Receptor potential is attenuated (becomes smaller) as it propaga...

Neuro transmitter Receptor Subtype Location/Function/ Effects/symptoms of excess or deficit if applicable Distribution (ie: CNS/PNS, GI, vascular) Drug classes that target this neurotransmitter or receptor Specific medications that target this neurotransmitter or receptor Glutamate AMPA Ligand-gated ion channels Modulates cell excitability by allowing the flow of calcium and sodium ions into the cell. Located at the CNS in neurons and glia. Excess has resulted in schizoph...

absolute poverty - Answer inability to meet a bare minimum of basic necessities, including clean drinking water, food, safe housing, and reliable access to healthcare acetylcholine (ACh) - Answer the neurotransmitter used at the neuromuscular junction, throughout the PNS and by the preganglionic neurons of the SNS acetylcholinesterase - Answer the enzyme that breaks down ACh in the synaptic cleft achieved status - Answer statuses that are considered to be due largely to an i...

Neuro transmitter Receptor Subtype Location/Function/Effects /symptoms of excess or deficit if applicable Distribution (ie: CNS/PNS, GI, vascular) Drug classes that target this neurotransmitter or receptor Specific medications that target this neurotransmitter or receptor Glutamate AMPA α-Amino-3-hydroxy-5- methyl-4- isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)-type glutamate receptors (AMPARs) mediate the majority of fast excitatory synaptic transmission in the brain. AMPA receptors ...

CNS vs PNS central nervous system-consists of your brain and spinal cord-the brain communicates with the muscles in creating a plan to accomplish the movement-spinal cord acts as a conduct that carries motor information from the brain to the body and sensory information from the body to the brainperipheral nervous system-made up of all of the nerves that connect the brain and spinal cord with the rest of the body-sending motor signals-extend from the spinal cord to the muscle and stimulate it to...
