string synaptic transmission of nerve im...

string synaptic transmission of nerve impulse, neurotransmitter (p) is released from synptic vesicles by the section of ions (Q). Choose the correct P and Q

A

P = acetylcholine, Q = `Ca^(++)`

B

P = acetylcholine, Q = `Na^(+)`

C

P = GABA, Q= `Na^(+)`

D

P = cholinesterase, Q= `Ca^(++)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
P = When the nerve impulses passes to the axon of neuron it stimulate the opening of `Ca^(2+)` thus depolarized axonal membrane.
Q = It releases neurotransmitter i.e. acetylcholine from presynaptic membrane to the post synaptic membrane of next neuron.

A list of events occurring in the transmission of nerve impulse across the synapse is given below in a random order (i)Opening of specific ion channels allows the entry of ions, a new action potential is generated in the post-synaptic neuron. (ii)Neurotransmitter binds to the receptor on post synaptic membrane. (iii)Synaptic vesicle fuses with pre-synaptic membrane, neurotransmitter release into synaptic cleft. (iv)Depolarisation of pre-synaptic membrane. (v)Arrival of action potential at axon terminal. Which of the following options represents these events in a correct order ?

Which option is correct for conduction of nerve impulse along chemical synapse? i. At synapse, the membranes of the pre and postsynaptic neurons are separated by a fluid-filled space called synaptic cleft ii. Chemicals called neurotransmitters are incolved in the transmission of impulses at these synapses iii. The axom terminals contain vesicles filled with these neurotransmitters iv. When an impulse arrives at the axon terminal, synaptic vesicles release their neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft. v. The release neurotransmitters bind to their specific receptors, present on the pre-synaptic membrane. vi. Opens ion channels allowing the entry of ions which can generate a new potential in the postsynaptic neuron vii. The new potential developed is only excitatory

(v)Synaptic vesicles move towards the membrane where they fuse with the plasma membrane. (vi)Neurotransmitters are released in the synaptic cleft. (vii)The released transmitters bind to their specific receptors on post-synaptic membrane

Assertion. Transmission of a nerve impulse across a synape is brought about by a neurotransmitter. Reason. A neurotransmitter is necessary to transmit a nerve impulse across a synapse because there is a small gap, the synaptic cleft, between the two neurons at the synapse.

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 assertion and reson carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: Assertion : Transmission of the nerve impulse across a synapse is accomplished by neurotransmitters. Reason : Transmission across a synapse usually requires neurotransmitters because there is small space i.e. synaptic cleft, that seperates one neuron from another.
