MHT CET Biology question
Which of the following is correct regarding electrical synapses? 1. Pre and post-synaptic membrane neurons are in very close proximity at electric synapse. 2. Electric current are involved in the transmission of impulses. 3. Transmission of an impulse across electrical synapses is very similar to impulse conduction along a single axon. 4. Impulse transmission is always faster in electric synapse than that across a chemical synapse. 5. Electrical synapses are rare in our system. Choose the correct option.
Answer: (D)
Solution
Statements 1, 2, 3 and 5 are correct for electrical synapses (close membranes, current flow, axon-like conduction, rare in humans), so the
