timothy has been in a traumatic brain accident and is no longer able to act appropriately in social situations and make good decisions, what part of timothy's brain was injured?

the Frontal lobe/cortex (other areas could be argued)

400

The two branches of the Autonomic nervous system are called 

the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic

400

One result of long term potentiation is 

more neurotransmitter is released

More neurotransmitter receptors are synthesized on the surface of the post synaptic neuron

more neurotransmitter-> more depolarization -> more efficient transduction of a signal

400

A surge in this hormone causes ovulation

Luteinizing hormone

what is the event that causes the cell to become very positive and vesicles containing neurotransmitter to fuse with the presynaptic membrane

action potential travels down to the presynaptic terminal, depolarization opens voltage gated calcium channels that make the cell very positive
