Select TWO events that occur when a neurotransmitter binds and activates an excitatory synapse.
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Key points

Neurons communicate with one another at junctions called synapses. At a synapse, one neuron sends a message to a target neuron—another cell.

Most synapses are chemical; these synapses communicate using chemical messengers. Other synapses are electrical; in these synapses, ions flow directly between cells.

At a chemical synapse, an action potential triggers the presynaptic neuron to release neurotransmitters. These molecules bind to receptors on the postsynaptic cell and make it more or less likely to fire an action potential.

What types of molecules may not need transport proteins to be able to cross cytoplasmic membranes?
frozen [14]

The correct answer is small hydrophobic molecules.

The smaller the molecule and the more hydrophobic, or nonpolar, it is, the more rapidly it will diffuse across a membrane. It is because of the composition of membrane (lipid bilayer). By contrast, membrane is highly impermeable to charged molecules (ions), no matter how small they are.
