A neurotransmitter may have an excitatory or an inhibitory effect on the postsynaptic cell, depending on __________.

Biology

Otrada [13]2 years ago

A neurotransmitter can have an excitatory or inhibitory effect on the postsynaptic cell, depending on <u>which of its </u><u>receptor(s</u><u>) are present on the </u><u>postsynaptic</u><u> (target) cell.</u>

<h3>How do excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters act?</h3>

Sometimes neurotransmitters can bind to receptors and cause an electrical signal to be transmitted through the cell (excitatory). In other cases, the neurotransmitter can prevent the signal from continuing, preventing the message from being carried (inhibitory).

With this information, we can conclude that a neurotransmitter is a signaling molecule secreted by a neuron to affect another cell across a synapse.

Which statement correctly describes other ways in which nebulae and stars are different? A. A star always has a higher density t
wel

The answer is; A

Nebulae are clouds of dust and gas in space. When local areas in nebulae start to collapse under their own weight and fusion begins, a star is born. This, therefore, means that a star is denser than nebulae because it requires that atoms fuse for it to form. Fusion creates heavier atoms from light atoms.
