AB ObjectivesAfter  studying  this  chapter,  the  student  should  be  able  to:Define  neurotransmission  types:  synaptic  and  volume  transmission.Distinguish  synaptic  transmission  at  electrical  and  chemical  synapses.Identify  the  morphologic  features  of  chemical  synapses.Categorize  the  different  types  of  neurotransmitters  (NTs).Diagram  the  mechanisms  of  NT  synthesis,  storage.  and  release.Describe  the  types  of  NT  receptors  and  their  functions.Compare  and  contrast  fast/direct  and  slow/neuromodulatory  synaptic  transmission.Diagram  the  mechanisms  for  NT  removal  from  the  synapse.Illustrate  how  synaptic  transmission  responses  are  integrated.Explain  how  volume  transmission  can  influence  neuronal  function.Identify  psychoactive  drug  targets  in  neurotransmission.
