Every time a reader questions the content of the article, the author will carefully write a single chapter to answer it.

A dear friend saw the sentence "current on synapses" in the first chapter of this article and had doubts.

He believes that the author lacks common sense - "What is transmitted between synapses is neurotransmitters. You don't even know this, and you still say you can understand the paper?"

Hmm... Like this brother, who thought the author lacked common sense after reading a sentence in the first chapter. This is the first time the author has encountered it.

To be honest, when the author wrote that sentence, he never thought that anyone would find fault here, because the sentence passed by in the article, and the meaning is actually very vague - "current on the nerve synapse"

, this sentence actually refers to the potential changes on nerves and synapses.

The transmission of chemical transmitters between synapses is the content of high school biology. To be honest, the author thinks that everyone who graduates from high school knows this. If a person knows the word "synapse", then he must also know about synapse.

Neurotransmitters are transmitted between touch.

He probably thought that the author was too bad at biology in high school - it's a shame that I was a biology contestant back then. Thinking about it, I really felt sorry for the competition coach back then and embarrassed him.

Now that synapses are mentioned, let's discuss seriously, is the view that the man insists on "there is no current between synapses" correct?

In high school biology, synaptic vesicles transmit chemical transmitters between synapses - mainly acetylcholine, which changes the permeability of the postsynaptic membrane, causing changes in potential.

This process is the conversion of electrical signals into chemical signals, and then into electrical signals.

That’s it for high school biology.

But physiology is more than high school.

In fact, synapses are not just chemical synapses - there are also electrical synapses that directly transmit electrical signals.

In an electrical synapse, the presynaptic membrane and the postsynaptic membrane are in close contact, allowing electrical signals to pass through them.

Therefore, even if this brother must understand the meaning of my sentence as "the current between synapses", this sentence is actually correct.

That’s it for popular science. After the brother discovered my common sense mistake, he kindly taught the author in English to be honest and don’t post it if you can’t understand the literature... Big boss, big boss, you can’t mess with me.

One last thing to say.
Chapter completed!
