What are three parts of limbic system and what are their jobs
1. Amygdala 😨
Job: Processes emotions, especially fear, anger, and emotional memories.
2. Hippocampus 🧠
Job: Forms and stores new memories and helps with learning.
3. Hypothalamus ⚖️
Job: Maintains the body's balance (homeostasis) by controlling hunger, thirst, body temperature, sleep, and hormones.
What are the 6 Steps of Synaptic Transmission
Electrical message travels through Pre Synaptic Neuron to Terminal Button, Neurotransmitters released from vesicle into synaptic cleft. Receptors of post synaptic neuron bind on using Lock and Key. Neurotransmitters enter Post synaptic neuron and either increase or decrease the likelihood of action potential.
Explain what Epinephrine and Norepinephrine are
Epinephrine, also called adrenaline, is a neurotransmitter and hormone involved in the body's fight-or-flight response.
Norepinephrine, also called noradrenaline, is a neurotransmitter and hormone that helps regulate attention, arousal, mood, and stress
