front 1 Aim | back 1 To investigate the role of acetylcholine in memory formation |
front 2 Method | back 2 A lab experiment with a group of lab rats |
front 3 Procedures | back 3 Rats were trained to go through a maze and were given food when they go to then end Once trained, they were then split into three groups
rats were places back in the same maze |
front 4 Results | back 4 Rats injected with scopolamine were slower and made more errors that both other groups rats injected with physostigmine ran the maze quicker and with less errors that the control group |
front 5 Conclusion | back 5 Acetylcholine plays an important role in creating a memory neurotransmitters, agonist or antagonist |
