16. Neurons that process similar kinds of information are organized into what are called “neuron or neuronal pools.”Different ways of processing information occurs in these pools, depending on their function, and how they are organized. What are the two types of processing of information described below?___________________________________One neuron stimulates the next, which stimulates the next, and so on; the most clear cut example of this type of processing would be innate reflexes.___________________________________ This type of process can activate many pathways simultaneously, and is essential for high-level processes such as complex thinking and problem solving.

Assume a neuron is at rest and the following changes happen: Step 1: Neurotransmitter binds to an ionotropic excitatory neurotransmitter receptor causing an EPSP.  Step 2: With the neurotransmitter still bound either a NAM or non-competitive antagonist bind to the allosteric site of the receptor. Answer the following questions that explains how the NAM and non-competitive antagonist would differ in their actions.   4.) A. Going from step 1 to step 2 what would happen to the ionotropic receptor (ion channel) as a result of the NAM. B. Going from step 1 to step 2 what would happen to the ionotropic receptor (ion channel) as a result of the non-competitive antagonist.  C. Going from step 1 to step 2 how would membrane potential change as a result of the NAM D. Going from step 1 to step 2 how would the membrane potential change as a result of the non-competitive antagonist.

Which component of the neuron sends action potentials away from the cell body?

Describe the process of neural integration. What happens when a neuron receives both inhibitory and excitatory signals at the same time?
