\n Each answer requires at least 300 words with an introduction that has a topic sentence, a body, a conclusion and at least 2 references in APA format.\n <\/p>\n

\n Make sure the questions are fully answered with key points from each topic. All your writing must be in your own words. No quotes! Paraphrase (restate what you read) rather than copying material from the course textbook or the Internet. No copying is permitted in this course and doing so will result in zero points on the exam. Answers must be written in narrative, paragraph form.\n <\/p>\n

\n Thank you also for your patience during the grading process. Each answer is graded manually, and the system will update after each answer. During this time, you may see a grade of 20, 40, and so on until all of the answers have been graded.\n <\/p>\n

2. \n Describe the process of action potential conduction and neurotransmission from one neuron to another, both electrically (including saltatory conduction) and chemically. Describe how a cell fires an action potential and be sure to address which structures are involved in neurotransmission. Discuss reuptake and enzymatic degradation (breakdown) in the context of the appropriate neurotransmitters.\n <\/li>\n
