Question:
Choose the correct option:
Statement I: Synaptic transmission occurs from presynaptic to postsynaptic neuron.
Statement II: Presynaptic membrane contains receptors for neurotransmitters.
Choose the correct option:
Statement I: Synaptic transmission occurs from presynaptic to postsynaptic neuron.
Statement II: Presynaptic membrane contains receptors for neurotransmitters.
Show Hint
Neurotransmitters are released from presynaptic neurons and bind to receptors on postsynaptic neurons.

- Both I and II are correct
- I is correct, II is incorrect
- I is incorrect, II is correct
- Both I and II are incorrect
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
- Statement I: Correct — Synaptic transmission is unidirectional: presynaptic → postsynaptic.
- Statement II: Incorrect — Receptors are on postsynaptic membrane, not presynaptic.
- Statement II: Incorrect — Receptors are on postsynaptic membrane, not presynaptic.
