Which of the following sequences of steps best represents the events that occur during synaptic transmission?
A)Binding of neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic membrane,diffusion of neurotransmitter across the synapse,release of neurotransmitter from the presynaptic cell
B)Diffusion of neurotransmitter across the synapse,binding of neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic membrane,release of neurotransmitter from the presynaptic cell
C)Release of neurotransmitter from the presynaptic cell,binding of neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic membrane,diffusion of neurotransmitter across the synapse
D)Release of neurotransmitter from the presynaptic cell,diffusion of neurotransmitter across the synapse,binding of neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic membrane

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct sequence of events during synaptic transmission is as follows: 1) Release of neurotransmitter from the presynaptic cell, 2) Diffusion of neurotransmitter across the synapse, and 3) Binding of neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic membrane. Therefore, the correct choice is D.
