Ordinarily, stimulation of a neuron takes place ____.
A) through hyperpolarization
B) at the synapse
C) in the mitochondria
D) in the endoplasmic reticulum

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stimulation of a neuron typically occurs at the synapse, where neurotransmitters are released by one neuron and received by another. This transfer of information is what enables the nervous system to function. Hyperpolarization, mitochondria, and the endoplasmic reticulum are all important components of neuron function, but they do not directly relate to the stimulation of a neuron.
