The brain initially develops from the primitive structures shown in Figure 26. What structure will develop from the blue portion in the middle?

Arrange the events of synaptic transmission in correct sequence. 1.sodium ions diffuse into the cell and cause a local potential2.neurotransmitter binds with receptor on postsynaptic cell3.neurotransmitter diffuses across the synaptic cleft4.membrane permeability to sodium ions on postsynaptic cell increases5.action potential causes release of neurotransmitter
