Not sure if this fits in this topic but I am struggling with trying to answer this assignment question - I really need help with understanding how to recognise different neurotransmitters action potentials. I understand the basics of depolarisation, hyper polarisation etc. I am just not sure how to recognise them when presented as figures such at the example in the picture, when multiple neurond are involved and they are all releasing neurotransmitters at the same time. Not sure if I explained that well, but I can't find the results I need online.
