When an action potential arrives at the presynaptic membrane, depolarization occurs, opening voltage-gated channels. this allows an influx of ca2 + ions that are needed to trigger the release of neurotransmitter into the synapse. if a calcium channel blocker, such as cadmium, is injected into the presynaptic cell, which explanation best describes cadmium's effect on the transmission of the impulse?
