What causes the movement of the synaptic vesicles towards the membrane during transmission of impulse across a chemical synapse?
1. Sodium | 2. Calcium |
3. cAMP | 4. cGMP |
I: | neurotransmitters are involved in the transmission of impulses. |
II: | the axon terminals contain vesicles filled with the neurotransmitters. |
III: | the released neurotransmitters bind to their specific receptors, present on the post-synaptic membrane. |
Assertion (A): | Electrical synapses are rarer than chemical synapses in human body. |
Reason(R): | Electrical synapses are faster than chemical synapses. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False |
1. | Electrical synapses allow the direct flow of ions from one neuron to another, while chemical synapses involve the release of neurotransmitters. |
2. | Chemical synapses can transmit signals faster than electrical synapses. |
3. | Electrical synapses involve neurotransmitters, whereas chemical synapses do not. |
4. | Chemical synapses are found in the heart, while electrical synapses are found in the brain. |
1. | Electrical signal directly passes from one neuron to another. |
2. | It primarily occurs in the heart. |
3. | It does not involve synaptic cleft. |
4. | It involves the release of neurotransmitters. |
