(choose chapter or problem)

Suppose a particular neurotransmitter causes an IPSP in postsynaptic cell X and an EPSP in postsynaptic cell Y. A likely explanation is that a. the threshold value in the postsynaptic membrane is different for cell X and cell Y. b. cell Y forms chemical synapses, whereas cell X forms electrical synapses. c. the axon of cell X is myelinated, but that of cell Y is not. d. only cell Y produces an enzyme that terminates the activity of the neurotransmitter. e. cells X and Y express different receptor molecules for this particular neurotransmitter.
