The figure shows an axon terminal and synapse. Select the option giving correct identification of labels A-D. [Figure]

  1. C-Receptor, D-Synaptic vesicles
  2. A-Axon terminal, B-Serotonin complex
  3. A-Action potential, C-Neurotransmitter
  4. B-Neurotransmitter, D-Receptor capsules

Answer

(1) C-Receptor, D-Synaptic vesicles

Solution

In the figure: A = action potential arriving along the axon, B = neurotransmitter released into the synaptic cleft, C = receptors on the post-synaptic membrane, D = synaptic vesicles in the axon terminal.

As per NCERT, axon terminals contain synaptic vesicles filled with neurotransmitters; the released neurotransmitters bind to their specific receptors present on the post-synaptic membrane.

∴ C-Receptor, D-Synaptic vesicles is correct.
