Students in Ms. B's class played the neuron relay game. One student drew a diagram and wrote some notes in her journal to help her remember the sequence of transmission.

NOTES
As you can see in the diagram, the messages to and from the
brain must follow a very complicated path. Electrical
neurotransformers help the message get from one neuron to
the next.
Do
you think this student accurately recorded the sequence? Is there anything you would
change? Use the facing page if you need more room.
