Five events in the transmission of nerve impulse across the synapse -

A. Opening of specific ion channels allows the entry of ions, a new action potential is generated in the post-synaptic neuron
B. Neurotransmitter binds to the receptor on post-synaptic membrane.
C. Synaptic vesicle fuses with pre-synaptic membrane, neurotransmitter releases into synaptic cleft
D. Depolarization of pre-synaptic membrane
E. Arrival of an action potential at the axon terminal

In which sequence do these events occur?

1. E D C B A
2. A B C D E
3. A B D C E
4. E D C A B
