Which of the following does NOT occur in a photoreceptor during exposure to light? A)membrane hyperpolarization B)closure of Na⁺ channels in the outer segment C) increased transmitter release from the synaptic terminal D) decrease in cyclic GMP in the outer segment

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In response to light, photoreceptors hyperpolarize, leading to the closure of Na+ channels and a decrease in cyclic GMP, which results in decreased transmitter release, not increased.
