What is Understanding Nervous System Communication about?
The nervous system communicates between cells using chemical synapses. There are two main cell types: neurons and glial cells. Communication can be either excitatory or inhibitory depending on the ions that flow across the synapse. Neuronal networks involve divergence, where one neuron communicates with multiple others, and convergence, where multiple neurons communicate with one neuron. Lateral inhibition allows neurons to enhance contrast between inputs. The key neurotransmitters are acetylcholine and cat
