Biology

Then on neuron one show me what the neuron is like at restingstate, please include:

a. sodium potassium pump The sodium-potassium pump (PDB entries2zxe and 3b8e ) is found in our cellular membranes, where it is incharge of generating a gradient of ions. It continuallypumps sodiumions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell, powered byATP.

b. sodium Na+ It's also called a serum sodium test. Sodium is anessential mineral to your body. It's also referred to as Na+.Sodium is particularly important for nerve and muscle function.

c. potassium K+ The chemical notation for potassium isK+. The proper level of potassium is essential fornormal cell function.

On neuron two show (via a drawing) me what happens during anaction potential (depolarization), describe what happens to thevoltage within and without the neuron. Include the movements of theNa+ and K+ ions.

On Neuron three show me via your drawing how a neuron goes backto resting state. Describe the movement of Ions across the neuronsmembrane and show me where all this takes place on the neuron.Please include hyperpolarization.

Similarly to assignment one, I want you to draw me a close uppicture of a synapse (what happens between the Axon terminals ofthe presynaptic neuron and the dendrites of a post synaptic neuroncommunicate). Please take a picture of your drawing and attach itto the assignment, in lieu of this write up a document thatparallels this assignment as close as possible and attach that tothe assignment instead.  Include the following elementsand describe briefly what they are doing to produce a synapticevent.

a. vesicles

b. neurotransmitter - explain where it is and what it does

c. synaptic gap

d. reuptake mechanism - describe its function and how itworks.

e. receptors

f. extra credit calcium and its channel
