A) The action potential along the presynaptic axon will be normal, but synaptic vesicles will not release neurotransmitter. B) Synaptic vesicles will release neurotransmitter but the neurotransmitter will be blocked from reaching receptors. C) The action potential in the presynaptic neuron will be blocked all along the length of that neuron's axon. D) Neurotransmitter will bind to their receptors, but second messenger actions will be prevented. Page 1
