This AP Psychology study guide covers neural communication, focusing on neurons, synapses, and neurotransmitters. It details neuron structure (dendrites, axon, myelin sheath), neural firing (action potential, resting potential), and types of signals (excitatory, inhibitory). The guide also explains the synapse, neurotransmitter functions (e.g., acetylcholine, dopamine, serotonin), and the roles of agonists and antagonists. Finally, it provides practice questions and exam tips.
