serial pathway

CNS organization where input travels along one pathway

New cards

convergent pathway

CNS organization where many converge and synapse with smaller number of neurons

New cards

divergent pathway

CNS organization where small number of presynaptic neurons synapse with larger number of postsynaptic neurons

4
New cards
