Question
**QUESTION 43**

Substrate B is ___.

**Options:**
- acetylcholinesterase
- choline
- tyrosine
- acetyl coenzyme A

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram illustrates the axon terminal of a cholinergic neuron and provides a detailed depiction of the steps involved in neurotransmitter recycling and release. 

**Key Components and Processes:**

1. **Synthesis and Packaging into a Vesicle (Step 1):**
   - Substrate A is synthesized and packaged into vesicles within the neuron terminal.

2. **Neurotransmitter Breakdown by Enzyme D (Step 2):**
   - After neurotransmitter release, it binds to Receptor C on the postsynaptic neuron and is then broken down by Enzyme D into acetate and Substrate B.

3. **Substrate B Transport into the Axon Terminal (Step 3):**
   - Protein E facilitates the transport of Substrate B back into the axon terminal of Neuron X.

4. **Substrate B is Recycled to Produce Neurotransmitter (Step 4):**
   - Process F involves the recycling of Substrate B, which combines with another component to reform the neurotransmitter.

**Diagram Legend:**
- **Substrate A:** Neurotransmitter before release.
- **Substrate B:** Component of the neurotransmitter after breakdown (choline).
- **Enzyme D:** Breaks down the neurotransmitter (e.g., acetylcholinesterase).
- **Protein E:** Involved in the reuptake of Substrate B.
- **Receptor C:** Post-synaptic receptor.
- **Process F:** Recycling mechanism for Substrate B to reform neurotransmitter.

Given the involved steps and substances in acetylcholine metabolism within cholinergic neurons, **Substrate B** in this context is **choline**.
