Chapter 3: Coordination and Response

This document discusses coordination and response between two neurons, X and Y. It contains a diagram showing neuron X synapsing onto neuron Y. When an impulse arrives at the synaptic terminal of neuron X, a chemical is released at point W. If neuron Y is cut off at point Z, then the response shown in diagram 1.2(b) would not occur due to the lack of signal transmission between neurons X and Y.
