i) Name the ions labelled A and B. "
iii) By what process do transmitter molecules move across the synaptic cleft?
iv) Name one transmitter molecule released by synaptic vesicles in the brain.
b) One impulse arriving at the presynaptic membrane does not produce an action potential in the
postsynaptic membrane, but several impulses arriving in succession do.
