"Transporter" proteins transport neurotransmitters ____.
A) back into the presynaptic neuron
B) across the synapse to the postsynaptic neuron
C) across the synapse back to the presynaptic neuron
D) to the appropriate receptor sites

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transporter proteins are responsible for reuptake of neurotransmitters back into the presynaptic neuron, where they can be repackaged and used again in future signaling events. This helps to control the levels of neurotransmitters in the synapse and regulates the strength and duration of signals between neurons.
