Why synaptic transmission is important in psychology? Would you give me one example?
without synaptic transmission, the organism could not live.
Yeah, if your brain don't think, you don't live. Or you know, experiencing emotions, thoughts, learning, interacting with the environment. Pretty much pick anything about existance and there you go. Without your brain, there's not much to work on through psychology.
The transmission of Neurotransmitters (our chemical messengers) between the synapses of neurons. These are our natural brain chemicals that pass through the synapses between two neurons (from the axon of one neuron to the dendrites of another). There are different Neurotransmitters that are made in our brain, some being: Acetylcholine (which is vital for learning, memory, concentration, and attention), Dopamine (Which stimulates the reward pathway and control motor functions among other things) Serotonin (Our mood Neurotransmitter), and many other Neurotransmitters. These are also tied into different Disorders that are studied in Psychology like Depression and Schizophrenia.
