Research suggests that learning may involve: A)Ca²⁺influx into a postsynaptic cell, causing biochemical changes and enhanced response to stimulation. B)changes in action potential duration caused by blocking voltage-gated K⁺channels. C)strengthening the sodium-potassium pump. D)synaptic changes caused by decreasing the size of the synaptic cleft and increasing the effectiveness of neurotransmitter diffusion. E)synaptic changes causing slower reuptake of neurotransmitter from the synaptic cleft.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that learning can result in increased Ca2+ influx into a postsynaptic cell, leading to biochemical changes and enhanced response to stimulation. This is thought to be one of the mechanisms underlying synaptic plasticity and the formation of new neural connections during learning.
