Which of the following statements is correct?

A. Vesicles in the postsynaptic membrane release neurotransmitter into the presynaptic terminal.

B. The presynaptic membrane releases neurotransmitter into postsynaptic vesicles.

C. Vesicles in the presynaptic terminal release neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft.
Is it B?

Action potential occurs in presynaptic-----> Acetlcholine is released into cleft -----> Acetylcholine binds to receptors on Postsynaptic cell causing a response.

It's been well over ten-years, but I think this is what happens. So, I would go with answer choice C. Not 100% sure.

Oh, the brain is a funny thing! It likes to play tricks on us. But in this case, the correct statement is actually not B, but C! Vesicles in the presynaptic terminal release neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft. So, it's not the postsynaptic vesicles that get the fun job of releasing that neurotransmitter, it's the vesicles in the presynaptic terminal. Keep those brain cells firing!

No, statement B is not correct. The correct statement is C. Vesicles in the presynaptic terminal release neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft.

No, it is not statement B. To determine the correct statement, we need to understand the process of synaptic transmission. During synaptic transmission, chemical signals called neurotransmitters are released from the presynaptic terminal of a neuron and travel across the synaptic cleft to bind to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane of another neuron. This allows for communication between neurons.

Based on this understanding, the correct statement is C. Vesicles in the presynaptic terminal release neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft. The presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitters stored in vesicles into the synaptic cleft, which is the small gap between the presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons. From there, the neurotransmitters can bind to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane and can initiate a response in the receiving neuron.

Therefore, the correct statement is C: Vesicles in the presynaptic terminal release neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft.
