The correct option is D

Neurotransmitters are released from axon terminals via exocytosis.

A neurotransmitter is stored inside synaptic vesicles which is a small sac-like structure. It is released into the synaptic cleft from axon terminals when a cell membrane fuses with vesicles. This process is termed exocytosis with the capability to release neurotransmitters in less than a millisecond.

In neurons of the nervous system, synaptic vesicle exocytosis occurs. Nerve cells communicate by electrical or chemical signals called neurotransmitters which are passed from one neuron to the next one. This transmission of neurotransmitters occurs by exocytosis.

The fundamental biological events of neurotransmission are dependent on neuronal communication and brain function including exocytosis of presynaptic vesicles which is for the release of neurotransmitters and the subsequent endocytosis.

Phosphorus is required to synthesize the deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates used in DNA replication. A geneticist grows some E. c
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

<h2> After one round: one strand of DNA  will contain radioactive 3232P, while the other strand  will not contain any radioactive phosphate. </h2><h2> After two rounds:  here 50%  of DNA will have 3232P in both strands, while 50% will contain 3232P in one strand and nonradioactive in the other strand. </h2>

 

Explanation:

1. In the initial sample which is immediately removed after addition of radioactive isotope of phosphorus ( 3232P), hence there is  no incorporation of 3232P into the DNA because replication in the medium containing 3232P has not yet occurred.  

2. After one round of replication in  radioactive isotope of phosphorus ( 3232P) containing  medium, here  only one newly synthesized strand of DNA molecule will contain 3232P, while the other strand  will not contain any  radioactive isotope of phosphorus ( 3232P),  because DNA replication occurs in semi-conservative way.

3. After two rounds of replication in medium which contains radioactive isotope of phosphorus ( 3232P), here 50% of the DNA molecules will have  radioactive isotope 3232P in both strands, while the rest 50% will contain 3232P in only one strand and nonradioactive phosphorous in the other strand.
