A. Adult neurons can sometimes from new connections
B. If one input to a target area is lost, the remaining inputs sometimes send out new branches from their axons to colonize the vacant space
C. Although transplanted neurons taken from a brain at the right stage of development will grow in an adult host brain, they will not restore normal function
D. Transplants of dopamine cell bodies alleviate some of the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease in human patients

A. The NMDA receptor is a particular subtype of glutamate receptor
B. Sodium entry into cell is one of the triggers for the development of LTP
C. NMDA-dependent LTP can only develop in a cell that has been depolarized and then receives a further input
D. Experiments have show the blockade of the NMDA receptor by the drug AP5 prevents the development of LTP
A. Neurons are integrators; they can have a vast number of different inputs, but they produce just a single output signal, which they transmit to their targets
B. There is a small voltage difference between the inside and the outside of the neuron in it resting state, known as the action potential
C. The inputs to neurons are tiny amounts of chemical neurotransmitters
D. In the steady state neurons, there is an active pumping of ions across the neuronal membrane
A. Antagonists
B. Agonists
C. A and B
D. Synapses
A. Inhibitory neurotransmitters increase the excitability of a cell
B. The classic inhibitory neurotransmitter is glutamate
C. Increasing chloride ion flow into the interior of the cell decreases the cell’s negativity
D. Increasing the cell’s negativity is called hyperpolarization
A. A cubic centimeter of glial cells because the damage would be less disabling
B. A cubic centimeter of subcortex because the damage would be less disabling
C. A cubic centimeter of spinal cord because the damage would be less disabling
D. A cubic centimeter of cortex because the damage would be less disabling
A. Resting potentials, neurotransmitters
B. Neurotransmitters, axon potentials
