Consider the two statements:
| I: | Electric synapses are rare in our system. |
| II: | Impulse transmission across electric synapse is always faster than across a chemical synapse. |
1. Both I and II are correct and II explains I
2. Both I and II are correct and II does not explain I
3. Only I is correct
4. Only II is correct
