Second and Third parts according to Stufflebeam (2006) are called the processes. These are the structures that extend away from the cell body. Which means that the function channels through signals that flow to or away from the cell body. All incoming signals that flow to other neurons also flow along its axon (Stufflebeam, 2006). Stufflebeam (2006)suggests that though it is possible for a neuron to have thousands of dendrites, it will only have one axon.
Lastly the fourth distinct part of neuron lies at the end of the axon, the axon terminals (Stufflebeam, 2006). These are the structures that contain neurotransmitters (Stufflebeam, 2006).]]> 2021-12-12 10:25:13 UTC https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942497233 Function hbjgddmkmh https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942501848 Receive INPUT “information” from other neurons then process the input information, to then send the “information” as OUTPUT to the other neurons (Stufflebeam, 2006). 
According to Stufflebeam (2006) this is how all of the motor information allows us to have movement in our bodies. It is through our sensory information that we are also able to use our senses such as see, hear, smell, taste, and touch. Our cognitive information goes through this process as well which enables us to reason, think, dream, plan, remember, and use our minds (Stufflebeam, 2006).
There is an estimate that we need about 200 billion neurons in the brain according to Stufflebeam (2006) in order to process so much information.]]> 2021-12-12 10:31:10 UTC https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942501848 Function hbjgddmkmh https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942501985 The function of the glial cells is to be the foundation, framework, walls, and roof of support to the neurons (Stufflebeam, 2006). Besides providing a structural framework that allows the networks of neurons to stay connected they also help with the maintenance of its functions by removing the debris after neuronal death according to Stufflebeam (2006). ]]> 2021-12-12 10:31:18 UTC https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942501985 How this action potential differs from electrical signals in electronic devices: hbjgddmkmh https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942528091 The way that these actions differ from the electrical signals in electronic devices is that the devices in itself do not have senses like we do. It is our senses that help our cognitive decision making. The neuron connection with the support of the glial cells help us reason, think, dream, plan, and remember (Stufflebeam,2006). Without us as the devices cannot function for themselves. Which in a way make us be more like the glial cells. We are helping channel an support the processing of signals through the electronic devices. ]]> 2021-12-12 11:05:08 UTC https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942528091 What are the Ions and how do they move into and out of a cell? hbjgddmkmh https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942528890 - Electrically charged particles (Stufflebeam, 2006).

According to Stufflebeam (2006), the ions move across the membrane through ion channels that open and close due to the presence of neurotransmitter.]]> 2021-12-12 11:06:06 UTC https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942528890 What are the two main ions that contribute to the resting potential?What happens during the depolarization or rising phase of the action potential?What happens during the repolarization or falling phase of the action potential? hbjgddmkmh https://padlet.com/hbjgddmkmh/tt7jzxzcglul3rii/wish/1942541114 According to Stufflebeam (2006), when the concentration of ions on the inside of the neuron changes, the electrical property of the membrane itself changes. This means that the membrane potential of a neuron rests as -70 millivoltswhich is when the polarization occurs (Stufflebeam, 2006). It is when the influx and outflux of ions make the inside of the target neuron more positive that the demoralization occurs (Stufflebeam, 2006). When this depolarization reaches a point of no return according to Stufflebeam (2006), a large electrical signal is generated. Which is the action potential (Stufflebeam, 2006).
