We need a synapse that turns an electrical signal into a chemical signal. It allows for us to modulate what that next signal is going to be. And that neurotransmitter may be excitatory like glutamate or inhibitory like GABA. So it's super important, and then we're back to the beginning again and the whole thing starts again - which I love.
In this episode, Dr Matt and Dr Mike discuss how the nervous system allows us to walk, talk, smell, taste, hear, and feel!
This episode is about the electrical and chemical signals that the body sends called action potentials!
For a video on this topic we suggest that you watch: Action Potentials
