what is the chemical used by axon in the further transmission of electrical impulse??
please send me the answer guys
Answers
Answer:
the chemical used in axon is synap
Explanation:
becoz it flows to one end of the axon to another axon.
Answer:
Neurotransmitters are secreted by the axon terminals for transmitting impulses to the adjacent neuron.
Explanation:
➣ Neurotransmitters are synthesized by the presynaptic neuron and stored in the synaptic vesicles.
➣ When an action potential reaches the synaptic terminal, depolarisation occurs and calcium ions in the channels cause some of the synaptic vesicles to fuse with the terminal membrane which releases the neurotransmitter.
➣ Diffusion of neurotransmitters across the synaptic cleft takes place ad it binds to the receptors of the postsynaptic neuron.
➣ This generates a new potential in the postsynaptic neuron.
More information:
➳ The most common neurotransmitter is Acetylcholine. The nerve fibres releasing these are called cholinergic and produces excitatory effect to the skeletal muscles and inhibitory effect on cardiac muscles.
➳ Serotonin controls mood and induces sleep.
➳ Dopamine, glycine and GABA (Gamma Amino Butyric Acid) are inhibitory transmittors.
