Answer:

The exception is d) Inactivation of phosphodiesterase

Explanation:

In the presence of light:

a) The membrane potential of the photoreceptors is hyperpolarized, causing a reduction in the amount of neurotransmitter released by the photoreceptor terminal to the postsynaptic neurons

b) Sodium ions accumulate outside the plasma membrane and the receptor potential takes a form

of hyperpolarization 6. This change in membrane potential leads to the closure of calcium channels. The end result is a decrease in the secretion of the neurotransmitter glutamate by the photoreceptors

c) Visual transduction or phototransduction is the process by which a light photon generates a nervous response in the photoreceptors

d) As a consequence of phosphodiesterase activation, degradation of a molecule called cGMP (guanosine cyclic monophosphate) is stimulated
