Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Synaptic vesicles (SVs) are small, electron-lucent vesicles that are clustered at presynaptic terminals. They store neurotransmitters and release them by calcium-triggered exocytosis. SVs are made locally at the terminals and are regenerated after exocytosis.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cholinergic neurons release ACh from axon terminals. ACh is synthesized from choline, which is transported into neurons.
