Arrange the following events in proper sequence during impulse transmission across a chemical synapse:
$(a)$ Fusion of synaptic vesicles with the cell membrane of the presynaptic neuron.
$(b)$ $Ca^{++}$ channels open and $Ca^{++}$ diffuses into the synaptic knob from the extracellular fluid.
$(c)$ Neurotransmitter binds with receptors of the postsynaptic cell.
$(d)$ Release of neurotransmitter by exocytosis.

  • A
    $d \rightarrow c \rightarrow a \rightarrow b$
  • B
    $a \rightarrow c \rightarrow b \rightarrow d$
  • C
    $b \rightarrow a \rightarrow d \rightarrow c$
  • D
    $c \rightarrow a \rightarrow d \rightarrow b$
