-Identify the structure on the postsynaptic membrane that bind with the neurotransmitter in Step 4 of Figure 8.1, and indicate its function. A) a receptor that can stimulate a cellular response by gating its ion channel or stimulating a G protein to gate an ion channel B) an enzyme used to remove neurotransmitter from the synaptic cleft C) endocytotic vesicle storing neurotransmitter D) a voltage -gated calcium channel for reuptake of Ca²⁺ E) transporter for the reuptake of released neurotransmitter

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The structure on the postsynaptic membrane that binds with the neurotransmitter is a receptor. Its function is to stimulate a cellular response either by gating its ion channel directly or by stimulating a G protein, which in turn gates an ion channel.
