Question

4. This image shows a graphical display how opioids inhibit overall nerve activity. Which explanation fits best for box C?

A. Presynaptic inhibition—receptors activate a G protein that opens K+ channels to hyperpolarize the postsynaptic cells, reducing firing rate

B. Axoaxonic inhibition—receptors activate G proteins that close Ca2+ channels, reducing the release of neurotransmitter.

C. Presynaptic autoreceptors activate G proteins and reduce release of a co-localized neurotransmitter

D. Postsynaptic autoreceptors activate G proteins and reduce release of a co-localized neurotransmitter
