Chapter 24, Problem 24.4P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Define term synapse.

Concept Introduction:

The neurons are the cells, which are responsible for the transfer of the signals from the body to.

brain and vice-versa. These nerves are arranged in different pathways, which carry a message from.

different regions of the body. The gap between two neuron at its junction is synapse.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Define term receptor.

Concept Introduction:

The cells are enclosed in a semipermeable cell membrane. This membrane does not allow the entry of the molecules inside it. Hence, the cell membrane posses many receptors, where the ligands can bind to generate a cellular response.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Define the term presynaptic.

Concept Introduction:

The neurons are the cells, which are responsible for the transfer of the signals from the body to.

brain and vice-versa. These nerves are arranged in different pathways, which carry a message from.

different regions of the body. The gap between two neuron at its junction is synapse.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

Define term postsynaptic.

Concept Introduction:

The neurons are the cells, which are responsible for the transfer of the signals from the body to.

brain and vice-versa. These nerves are arranged in different pathways, which carry a message from.

different regions of the body. The gap between two neuron at its junction is synapse.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

Define term vesicles.

Concept Introduction:

The exocytosis is a process, by which a cell sends a chemical capable of eliciting a response in a membrane-bound vesicle. The endocytosis is a process, by which a cell uptake a membrane-bound vesicle.
