A diagram that shows the structure of a post-synaptic membrane. It consists of three spheres each representing a different type of membrane. The first sphere on the left is labeled "acetylcholine" and is labeled as "5-HT". The second sphere is labelled as "noradrenaline histamine tricyclic antidepressant". The third sphere is titled "degraded monoamines" and has a label that reads "Nerve terminal mitochondria". In the center of the image there is a neuron terminal with a mitochondria attached to it. The neuron terminal is responsible for the transfer of neurotransmitters from the neurotransmitter to the mitochondria. The mitochondria is also responsible for releasing neurotransmitter receptors into the receptor. The neurotransmitter receptor is a neurotransmitter that helps to regulate the neurotransmitmitration of neurotransmitter molecules in the body. The image also shows the post-synthetic membrane which is a membrane that helps regulate neurotransmitter activity in the nervous system.
