Question

Axodendritic synapses result in hypopolarization or hyperpolarization of a neuron, while ______ synapses increase or decrease the release of neurotransmitter into the synapse.

Answer 1

Answer: Axoaxonic

Step-by-step explanation:

The axoaxonic transfer of the electrical signals takes place when the one neurons sends signals from synapse of neuron to the synapse of another neuron.

They mediate the presynaptic inhibition and presynaptic facilitation. This type of transfer of increases or decreases the release of the neurotransmitter into the synapses.

These transfers helps in conduction of the signals from the brain to the various parts of the body in order to generate the response by the body.
