As these new synapses are created, memories form.

当这些新突产生时，记忆就形成了。

If you're thinking cerebrum. Oh, synapse, I think neuron to something.

如果你在想大脑、突，我想神经元。

There are hundreds, possibly thousands of different kinds of connections, or synapses.

有成百上千种不同类型的连接，或突。

This information is saved by altering neurons and creating synapses and connections.

这样的讯息能因神经元的不断改变及神经键和连结的创造而被储存下来。

But it cannot show which synapses on them are silent.

但无法确定树突丝上的哪些突默突。

To understand how cocaine works, let's zoom into one of the synapses of the brain.

了弄清可卡因的制，让我们来讲一讲大脑的突！

The human brain has 100 billion neurons and up to 150 trillion synapses.

人脑含有1000亿个神经元和多达150兆神经键。

I'm talking about the synapse — the meeting point between two neurons.

我说的突——两个神经元之间的交汇点。

The human brain contains about 86 billion neurons, connected by at least a hundred trillion synapses.

人脑包含约860亿个神经元，它们通过至少一百万亿个突相连。

I think it was quitting smoking that slowed me down; nicotine is a great synapse enhancer.

我想大概戒烟让我速度减慢了；尼古丁在加强神经突活动方面功效很强。

The metaphor of the brain is tempting, but " neurons" and " synapses" deserve those scare-quotes.

大脑这个比喻听起来很诱人，但“神经元”和“突”值得我们引一下。

SSRIs reduce the reuptake of serotonin, which increases the amount of serotonin hanging around synapses.

SSRIs 减少了对 5-羟色胺的再摄取，从而增加了突周围的 5-羟色胺含量。

Gray matter is the type of tissue that contains most of the brain's cell bodies and synapses.

到三岁时，儿童大脑中每个神经元的突数量成年人的两倍。

One neuron can then pass that signal to the next at a synapse by way of chemical neurotransmitters.

此后，一个神经元可以把信号传递到下一个神经元的神经突。传递通过化学神经递质实现。

In conventional backprop, error signals lead to adjustments in the synapses, which in turn cause changes in neuronal activity.

在传统的反向传播中，误差信号会导致突的调整，进而导致神经元活动的变化。

The serotonin molecules diffuse across the synapse and bind to their receptors on the neighboring neuron, transmitting the signal.

5-羟色胺分子通过突扩散，并与邻近神经元上的受体结合，传递信号。

The two neurons communicate at the synapse, where one neuron sends neurotransmitters to the next neuron.

如图这两个神经元在突处进行信息传递，由一个神经元将神经递质传递给下一个神经元。
