Question 1

When more action potentials arrive at the axon terminal, how are neurotransmitters affected?
◦ Different molecules are released into the synapse.
◦ More molecules are released into the synapse.
◦ Fewer molecules are released into the synapse.
◦ There is no effect–all signals are identical.

Question 2

When more action potentials arrive at the axon terminal, how is a postsynaptic neuron affected?
◦ Neurotransmitter release increases, but does not change the graded potentials in postsynaptic neurons.
◦ Neurotransmitter release increases, increasing the frequency or magnitude of graded potentials in the postsynaptic neuron.
◦ Neurotransmitter release does not change, but voltages in the postsynaptic neuron increase.
◦ Neurotransmitter release does not change, and the postsynaptic neuron behaves the same way it always behaves.

For about 100 years, scientists thought that peptic ulcers were caused by stress, spicy food, and alcohol. Later, researchers added stomach acid to the list of causes and began treating ulcers with antacids. Now it is known that peptic ulcers are predominantly caused by Helicobacter pylori, a spiral-shaped bacterium that normally exist in the stomach.
