Which of the above statements are true?

1. I and II only

2. I and III only

3. II and III only

4. I, II, and III

Receptor sites for neurotransmitters are present on

2. pre-synaptic membrane
3. tips of axons
4. post-synaptic membrane

Stimulation of a muscle fibre by a motor neuron occurs at

1. the neuromuscular junction

2. the transverse tubules

3. the myofibril

4. the sacroplasmic reticulum

A diagram showing axon terminal and synapse is given. Identify correctly A-D.

Alzheimer disease in humans is associated with the deficiency of

1. dopamine

2. glutamic acid

3. acetylcholine

4. Gamma Amino Butyric Acid (GABA)

Which one of the following not act as a neurotransmitter?

1. Acetylcholine

2. Epinephrine

3. Nor epinephrine

4. Cortisone

Which of the following pesticides is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor?

1. Aldrin

2. BHC

3. Endosulfan

4. Malathion

Unidirectional transmission of a nerve impulse through nerve fibre is due to the fact that 

1. nerve fibre is insulated by a medullary sheath 

2. sodium pump starts operating only at the cyton and then continues into the nerve fibre

3. neurotransmitters are relesed by dendrites and not by axon endings 

4. neurotransmitters are released by the axon endings and not by dendrites. 

The release of chemical messenger from synaptic vesicles is under the influence of these ion(s)
(1) CI^-

(2) Fe⁺⁺ and S⁺⁺

(3) Ca⁺⁺

(4) Mg⁺⁺ and Sr⁺⁺

Assertion   :       The chemical stored in the synaptic vesicles are termed as neurotransmitters.

Reason      :       Synaptic vesicles release these chemicals in the synaptic cleft.
