To help understand synaptic transmission, researcher Stephen Kosslyn would recommend that you
A)picture the synapse as a canal with neurotransmitter molecules the size of small rowboats moving across the canal.
B)use rote recitation in stating the steps that occur during a synaptic transmission.
C)make an exact replica of two neurons using clay so you can study how synaptic transmission occurs across the synaptic gap between the neurons.
D)study the picture that depicts a synaptic transmission in your textbook from different perspectives.

Kosslyn's research on mental imagery suggests that picturing processes can aid in understanding complex mechanisms, such as synaptic transmission. Imagining neurotransmitters as rowboats moving across a canal is an example of using mental imagery to grasp the concept.
