How does the neuron know when to release the neurotransmitters?

All neurotransmitter receptors should be thought of as having two functions: First, to detect a particular neurotransmitter, and second, to do something<span> when they detect it. The receptor determines what the neurotransmitter's effect is. So it's not always right to call a neurotransmitter inhibitory or excitatory. Glutamate, for example, is among the most common neurotransmitters, and it's almost always excitatory... Except when it binds to a particular type of glutamate receptor, which is inhibitory. Done dopamine receptors are excitatory, some are inhibitory, and not all receptors have effects that fit neatly into those two categories. Sometimes a receptor will have an effect on something completely different... When the NMDA subtype of glutamate receptor is activated, for example, it can cause the postsynaptic cell to change what receptors it puts at that synapse (a cell can have different receptors at different synapses!). Your welcome!

Which of the following options lists the stages in cellular respiration in the correct order? glycolysis, the citric acid cycle,
marishachu [46]

Answer:

The correct answer is  glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation

Explanation:

Aerobic respiration contains three major processes that are glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.  

In glycolysis, partial oxidation of one mole of glucose gives two moles of pyruvate and 2 NADH and 2 ATP. Then this pyruvate is converted into acetyl-CoA in the mitochondrial matrix(in eukaryotes) and acts as a fuel for the Krebs cycle.

In the Krebs cycle, acetyl CoA gives rise to 4 CO₂, 2 ATP, 6 NADH, and 2 FADH₂. So from glycolysis and Krebs cycle, only 4 ATP is produced and most of the energy remains in the form of NADH and FADH₂.

So in oxidative phosphorylation electrons are released from these molecules into machinery of oxidative phosphorylation to synthesize ATP.
