[A] : In mammals, ends of presynaptic fibres are enlarged to form synaptic Knobs which are separated by a synaptic cleft from postsynaptic neurons. Each synaptic knob contains many mitochondria and small gran- ule-Iike synaptic vesicles filled with minute packets of the chemical that transmits im- pulses to postsynaptic neurons. [R]: The chemical transmitters are called neurohumors which proportionate to K^+ in- flux.

Which of the following is true about the synaptic cleft ?

Exocytosis of synaptic vesicles containing neutransmitters at synaptic cleft occurs due to

A : Transmission of the nerve impulse across a synapse is accomplished by neurotransmitters . R : Transmission across a synapse usually requires neuro transmitters because there is space , i.e., synaptic cleft, that separates one neuron from another .

Read the given statements and select the correct option. (i)Synaptic cleft of neurons secreates adrenaline. (ii)Myelinated nerve fibres are enveloped with Schwann cells, which form a myelin sheath around the axon. (iii)Non-myelinated nerve fibre is enclosed by a Schwann cell that does not form a myelin sheath. (iv)Spinal and cranial nerves are made of non-myelinated nerve fibres.

Do you know how the pre-synaptic neuron transmits an impulse (action potential) across the synaptic cleft to the post-synaptic neuron?
