Answer (True)Axon of first neuron to dendrites, cell body, and axon of second neuron

(True)The influx of calcium ions at the synaptic terminal causes the fusion of synaptic vesicles with the terminal membrane and results in the release of neurotransmitters that bind to postsynaptic ion channels.

Explanation:

The first answer explains the transmission pathway of action potential in a neuron with ELECTRICAL SYNAPSE at dendrites.

This is an exemple of SULTATORY CONDUCTION,because the action potential jumps from one Nodes of Ranvier to another along the axon.

The second answer explains transmission from pre-synaptic neuron ,with CHEMICAL SYNAPSE initiated by calcium ion in influx into the synaptic cleft at terminal ends; for transmission of action potential to the post synaptic neuron to induce inhibition or excitation of muscles.

The neurotransmitters released binds with the receptors on the post synaptic neuron to ensure crossing /transmission of action potential

One of the two major systems that are affected by the stress response is the ____________, which results in increased production

Marizza181 [45]

The two major systems involved in the stress response are the Nervous System [the Sympathetic subdivision of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)] and the Endocrine System (glands which secrete hormones intonthe bloodstream).
The Endocrine System's response during acute and/or chronic stress (adaptation) involves first the Hypothalamic release of Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone (CRH), which stimulates the Anterior Pituitary (via the blood) to release AdrenoCorticoTropic Hormone (ACTH), which then activates the Adrenal Cortex to release glucocorticoid hormones (i.e. Cortisol), amongst others into the bloodstream. Cortisol then has many effects on tissues and organs throughout the body to allow better generalized coping with the initial stress stimulus.
