    Release of neurotransmitter substance at the presynaptic membrane is medicated by

    A)  Na ions          

    B)  Ca ions

    C)  K ions           

    D)  Mg ions.

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    : is the key to synaptic vesicle fusion and discharge. An action potential reaching the presynaptic terminal opens voltage-gated\[C{{a}^{2+}}\]channels, and the resulting\[C{{a}^{2+}}\]influx triggers release. The\[C{{a}^{2+}}\]content is then restored to the resting level by rapid sequestration and removal from the cell, primarily by a \[C{{a}^{2+}}-N{{a}^{+}}\]antiport.
