Across
- 4. All-or-none electrical signal that propagates along axons (write all as one word, no spaces)
- 7. Passive property that describes how quickly membrane voltage changes (greek letter representing it)
- 8. Electrical potential at which there is no net ion movement through a channel
- 10. Measure of how easily ions flow through an open channel
- 11. Voltage at which an action potential is initiated
- 12. Primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system
Down
- 1. Type of synapse that uses neurotransmitters
- 2. Chemical messengers released from presynaptic terminals
- 3. Type of synapse that uses gap junctions
- 5. Difference between membrane potential and equilibrium potential of an ion (used in IV curves, write all as one word)
- 6. Protein complex required for synaptic vesicle fusion
- 9. Bacterial toxin that blocks neurotransmitter release by cleaving SNARE proteins
