b. enzymatic deactivation.
c. reuptake.
d. second messaging.
Question 2

a. returns the synaptic vesicles to the cell body for refilling.
b. triggers the activation of autoreceptors on the presynaptic membrane.
c. causes synaptic vesicles to migrate to their release sites.
d. signals the vesicles to store additional neurotransmitter molecules.
