Question
_______ is the process of neurotransmitter release.
○ differentiation
○ inclusion
○ exocytosis
○ refractory period
Exocytosis is the process by which neurotransmitters are released from a neuron. Neurotransmitters are stored in vesicles, and during exocytosis, these vesicles fuse with the cell - membrane and release their contents (neurotransmitters) into the synaptic cleft. Differentiation refers to cell - specialization, inclusion is not related to neurotransmitter release, and the refractory period is a time after an action potential when a neuron is less likely to fire again.
