Explain the process of the transport and release

Question:

Explain the process of the transport and release of a neurotransmitter with the help of a labelled diagram showing a complete neuron, axon terminal and synapse.

Solution:

Any nerve impulse is passed from one neuron to another neuron via the axon. Transport and release of a neurotransmitter occur within a synapse. At a chemical

synapse, the membranes of the pre- and post-synaptic neurons are separated by a fluid-filled space called the synaptic cleft. At these synapses, chemicals called

transmitters are involved in the transmission of impulses.
