Description
Building neurons invites your students to consider how the chemical and electrical signals in their brains are transported. Constructing neurons with various sized models let students:
- Distinguish between multipolar, bipolar, unipolar neurons and interneurons
- Add myelin sheath pieces to explore two types of neuroglia in our nervous systems
- Examine the overall effect on neuronal firing at excitatory and inhibitory synapses
