Multiple Choice
In E-LTP, what happens to silent dendritic spine synapses when functional synapses are subjected to LTP?
A) LTP leads to AMPA receptor removal from the membrane and receptor degradation.
B) There is an influx of Ca2+ ions into the NMDA receptor which activates AMPA receptors thereby making the silent synapses functional.
C) AMPA receptors in the silent synapses move into spine membrane thereby making the synapses functional.
D) Functional synapses suppress the transport of AMDA into silent synapses during LTP.
