Neuroscientist have discovered a mechanism that contributes to the strengthening of associations, also called synapses.

<h3>What are synapses?</h3>

A synapse is a physical component of the nervous system that enables a neuron (or nerve cell) to transmit an electrical or chemical signal to an additional neuron or to the intended effector cell.

The transfer of nerve impulses from one neuron to another requires synapses. Synapses are the way by which neurons, which are specialized to convey messages to specific target cells, accomplish this. The plasma membrane of the target (postsynaptic) cell and the plasma membrane of the signal-passing neuron are in close proximity at a synapse. The large arrays of molecular machinery that link the two membranes and carry out the signaling process are present at both the presynaptic and postsynaptic locations. Many synapses have an axon for the presynaptic component and a dendrite or soma for the postsynaptic component. Additionally, astrocytes communicate with synaptic neurons, responding to synaptic activity to control neurotransmission.

Similitudes con demandas actuales del levantamiento indigena del EZLN en chiapas
mel-nik [20]

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Las similitudes con demandas actuales del levantamiento indígena del EZLN en Chiapas, son las siguientes.

Los indígenas en México y la mayoría de países en Latinoamérica, han sido relegados a un segundo y hasta tercer plano en la sociedad. Los grupos indígenas son muy pobres. Y en el caso de México, su demandas siguen siendo muy similares a las expresadas por el grupo contrarrevolucionario EZLN (Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional).

Las demandas siguen siendo: la autodeterminación de los pueblos indígenas, no sólo en Chiapas, sino en Guerrero, Tabasco, Veracruz, Tlaxcala, Puebla, Oaxaca, Estado de México, entre otros.

Otra demanda es la repartición de tierras, ya que durante muchos sexenios, hombres del poder y empresarios abusivos expropiaron tierras indígenas sin ofrecerles un pago justo. Otra demanda es el apoyo al campo con agua para riego y fertilizantes. De igual manera, tecnología y maquinaria para labrar la tierra.
