From the following list, select all options that are correctwith respect to the synapse.

Question 5 options:

A)

the synapse is the site where the plasma membrane that coversthe axon terminal of one neuron makes direct contact with and fusesto the plasma membrane on the cell body or dendrite of anotherneuron

B)

the action potential travels through extracellular fluid in thesynapse to get from one neuron to the next

C)

presynaptic nerve terminals release chemical messengers into thesynapse in response to arrival of an action potential

D)

signaling molecules in the synapse can be broken down by enzymesthat are present on the post synaptic cell membrane

E)

signaling molecules in the synapse can bind to 're-uptake'receptors and be taken back into the presynaptic neuron forbreakdown or for repackaging/reuse

F)

signaling molecules can be taken into and degraded within thepostsynaptic cell

G)

signaling molecules in the synapse function as chemicalmessengers that regulate the opening of ligand-gated channels inthe plasma membranes of post synaptic cells
