Answers: A.
Neurotransmitters are synthesized within
presynaptic neurons.
B.
Depolarization of a neuron results in the release of a
neurotransmitter, which exerts a multitude of actions
on the postsynaptic neuron. C.
Their action on postsynaptic neurons can be
replicated by administering a drug that mimics
the activity of the endogenous neurotransmitter.
D.
Their action in the synaptic cleft is terminated by a
specific action. E.
A, C, and D only
Response Answer B should read a “discrete” (not multitude)
Feedback: action on the post synaptic neuron.
