1st Question "What is Brain Bee"
1st Response "It is a staged competition"
1st Question "What are the stages?"
1st Response "Online Quiz"
- ⋯   is held during Brain Awareness Week. Students study the book Neuroscience: Science of the
Brain. An Introduction for Young Students by The British Neuroscience Association (BNA) and
European Dana Alliance for the Brain (EDAB). They then complete an on-line quiz in their
schools under exam conditions to determine their knowledge and understanding of the
structure and function of the brain 14 - 20 March 2016
1st Question "What to study?"
1st Response "Electronic Book"
1st Question "Contents"
3rd Response "Chemical Messengers"
1st Question "What happens after axon"
- ⋯   Action potentials are transmitted along axons to
specialised regions called synapses, where the axons
contact the dendrites of other neurons. These consist of
a presynaptic nerve ending, separated by a small gap from
the postsynaptic component which is often located on a
dendritic spine. The electrical currents responsible for the
propagation of the action potential along axons cannot
bridge the synaptic gap. Transmission across this gap is
accomplished by chemical messengers called
neurotransmitters
2nd Response "Action Potential releases Ca++ that releases Enzymes"
1st Question "What is the process?"
Step (6 of 10):  "The neurotransmitters simulate RECEPTORs in the dendrites"
2nd Question "How do the work?"
