As mentioned in class, some inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs) are the result of Cl - entering the cell through a chloride channel. Other IPSPs are caused by the opening of K + channels.

How could movement of the potassium ion result in hyperpolarization of the postsynaptic cell?

I get that there is movement; I need to know how or more-so why it results in hyperpolarization .

Briefly explain why Neuron A that receives similar types and strengths of synaptic input to Neuron B, can have very different action potential shapes (i.e. waveforms) and action potential firing rate versus Neuron B. In your answer be sure to describe: (1) What aspects of the neuron’s composition determine this 'intrinsic excitability', (2) Which of these aspects are the most common components in these responses, and (3) Why a neuron might fire more action potentials if it is forced to become hyperpolarized before becoming depolarized.

Mr. Andy Capp was recently arrested by San Antonio police for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI). Calculate his estimated BAC range based on the following factors. Andy (male) at the time of the incident weighed 160 lbs (pounds) and told his defense attorney that he had only consumed six (6) beers and four (4) shots of hard liquor that night. He recalls that he had started drinking at 6:00 pm at the Hilltop Pub and was pulled over by police for the alleged DUI offense that night at 11:30 pm just two blocks from his residence after running over a neighbor’s mailbox.

He has had several prior alcohol related charges over the last two years. Based on this scenario what was his estimated BAC range (expressed in g/dL) at the time of the offense? What is this BAC range expressed in mg/dL? Show your work for partial credit.

Ms. Anna Capp now states that she was driving instead of her husband and hit the mailbox. Calculate her BAC range (in g/dL) based on her weighing 110 lbs and her claims that she consumed 4 beers and 2 shots of hard liquor starting at 6:00 pm at the Hilltop Pub. Show your work for partial credit.
