- 1NeurohormoneChemical message, manufactured by neurons and are released from the axon terminals into the capillaries, where they are absorbed into the bloodstream and carried out to targeted cells or neurons.
-> slower process than neurotransmitters
-> can act as neurohormone/ transmitter - 2Glutamateexcitatory neurotransmitter that enhances information transmission by making postsynaptic neurons more likely to fire.
-> More frequent glutamate is released in the synapse, the more it promotes the strengthening of synaptic connections, making post & presynaptic neurons more likely to connect in the future (LTP) - 3Glutamate receptorsAMPA & NMDA
Without these receptors, glutamate's messages cannot be 'accepted' by postsynaptic neurons
-> AMPA: prepares the postsynaptic neuron to accept glutamate and clears out so
-> NMDA: can accept glutamate - 4Consolidationbiological process of making newly formed memory more stable or enduring after learning
-> time-dependent
-> can be interfered (altered) or erased
-> vulnerable to disruption 30min following learning
-> disruption: new info not being able to be transferred from STM -> LTM / info not stored well in LTM
->
