Asking the real questions. Axons are connected to the neuron and exchange a lot of chemicals between them. For example, the mitochondria in axons go back and fort to the neuron IIRC.
It's not very googlable but neurons have a memory of how likely they are to trigger an action potential, based on past stimuluses/timings. No one knows where this memory is encoded. And is there one action potential per axon? If so then it would be more logical for this memory (and computation which leads to mutation to the memory) to be stored in the axon (if). |
