Question 37
H

A drug blocks the receptor molecules on the neurone after a synapse.

Which statement describes the effect of this drug?

[1]
A

The chemical cannot be released by the first neurone, so its impulse stops early.

B

The chemical binds more strongly to the next neurone, so its impulse is faster.

C

The chemical cannot bind to the next neurone, so no new impulse is started in it.

D

The chemical diffuses across the gap more quickly, so more impulses are sent.
