Can anyone explain the role of the neurotransmitters in the synapse?

1 answer:

Our nervous system runs on chemical synapses ! that means we need chemical to transfer information from one neuron to another !

so when the signal reaches the synaptic knob of one neuron , it stimulates the neurotransmitters containing vacuoles to release the neurotransmitters !

the neurotransmitters may be dopamine, acetylcholine etc and after reaching the dendrites of other neuron, it stimulates signal in the other neuron and thus a signal travel from one part of body to other !

Show a diagram of how ions are formed when a sodium atom comes into close

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The diagram is attached below.

Explanation:

when sodium and chlorine comes close together they form anion and cation. The compound formed is called sodium chloride.

Both atoms bonded together through ionic bond.

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.
