This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: post synaptic effects.cmap, chemical transmission ???? slow transmission, invertebrates and the heart, NT removal or degredation, Gap Junctions which creates a direct connection between cells, Post-synaptic effects/ion channels neurotransmitters chemical transmission, slow transmission works by causing intracellular messengers to open a chennel, Post-synaptic effects/ion channels ???? NT removal, fast transmission works by Nt binding to the receptor which is a Na+ channel, NT removal occurs though NT recycling, direct connection between cells advantageous because is fast, takes less energy, is more reliable, is good for synchronization, Electrical transmission flows through Gap Junctions, Post-synaptic effects/ion channels No neurotransmitter Electrical transmission, Gap Junctions made of 2 connexons (one on each side of gap junction), Electrical transmission found in invertebrates, chemical transmission ???? fast transmission, 2 connexons (one on each side of gap junction) each made of 6 connexins (protein subunits), direct connection between cells disadvantages are no modulation or summation
