Dr. Smith is cоnducting аn experiment оn synаptic trаnsmissiоn in neurons. During the experiment, she observes an action potential traveling down the axon of a presynaptic neuron. When the action potential reaches the axon terminal, she notes that a specific type of ion channel opens, allowing ions to flow into the terminal. This influx of ions is crucial for the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. Question: Which of the following ion channels is most likely to open in response to the action potential reaching the axon terminal, facilitating neurotransmitter release? A) Voltage-gated sodium ion channelsB) Voltage-gated potassium ion channelsC) Voltage-gated calcium ion channelsD) Ligand-gated chloride ion channels
