Question

Which of the following is not found at the axonal terminal - Neurotransmitter, Golgi Apparatus, Mitochondria or Synaptic Vesicle?

Answer 1

Golgi apparatus is not found at the axon terminal.

At the end of an axon , axon terminal is present which is a button like structure, whose function is to provide synapse between nerve cells.

Axon terminals have specialised chemicals called neurotransmitter which help in transmitting signals across a chemical synapse. They are contained within synaptic vesicle initially. Synaptic vesicle are membrane bound vesicle which contain neurotransmitter.

Mitochondria are also present at the axon terminal , it helps in synaptic function by the production of ATP.
