Pick up iRespond remote and immune quiz from mailbox
Warm-up: Outline the steps involved in neurotransmitter release (and smile about the image below)
1. Nervous/Endocrine Quiz
2. Animal Behavior Notes 3. Exam Review (based on quiz grade) HW: STUDY FOR EXAM Pick up graphic organizer by mailboxes.
Warm-up: Explain the role of sodium and potassium in neuronal signalling. 1. Discuss neuron simulation 2. Neurotransmitter release diagram 3. Vocabulary selection 4. Animal behavior notes HW: Study for endocrine/nervous quiz, post Instagram comments Vocab: Pick up packet and diagrams by mailboxes and yesterday's assignment in the mailboxes Warm-up: The graph below depicts the duration of cocaine use and the availability of dopamine (a neurotransmitter related to happiness) receptors in the brain. What does graph suggest about the nature of cocaine addiction as it relates to prolonged use and dopamine receptors in the brain? 1. Complete endocrine diagram
