What is Chemical Synapse?
This type of synapse facilitates direct ionic and small metabolite communication
What is electrical synapse?

What is speed? (KaChow)
This Hawkeye recently broke the record for most points score for D1 Womens Basketball
Who is Caitlin Clark?
This is the type of junction found in electrical synapses
What are gap junctions?
These are the three junctions at most cell types
What are Adherens, Tight, and Gap Junctions?
This is the technique used to create the cKO mice
What is Floxing?
These neuronal currents likely do not utilize CX26 making them a good negative control

This year the University of Iowa was founded
What happened in 1847?
This is the neurotransmitter used for GABA-synaptic transmission (acronyms do not count)
What is Gamma-aminobutyric acid?
This is how CX43 travels from the soma to the axon of a neuron
What is vesicular transport?
This trait was noted to have NOT changed in dendritic spines with cKO mice
What is spine length?
This is that age at which mice were tested for (and exhibited) anxiety like symptoms, indicating a lasting effect of the cKO
What is P40-50?
This Bear was Iowa's first live mascot from 1908 to 1910

What is a Sholl analysis?
This disease is the most common effect of CX26 loss in humans
What is deafness?
