Which of the following would not have an effect on synaptic function?
A) interfere with neurotransmitter synthesis
B) interfere with neurotransmitter reuptake
C) prevent neurotransmitter inactivation
D) block neurotransmitter binding to receptors
E) All of the above would affect synaptic function.

All of the choices would affect synaptic function. Interfering with neurotransmitter synthesis would decrease the amount of neurotransmitter available for release, interfering with neurotransmitter reuptake would increase the amount of neurotransmitter in the synaptic cleft, preventing neurotransmitter inactivation would prolong the duration of neurotransmitter action, and blocking neurotransmitter binding to receptors would prevent the transmission of signals across synapses.
