Solution
The correct option is B Presynaptic neuron The presynaptic terminal, located along the axon of most neurons, is a compartment where neurotransmitter-containing vesicles cluster near a highly specialized region of the plasma membrane called the 'active zone'. From there, vesicles release their contents during synaptic transmission.
