Which one of the following statements is incorrect?

Which one of the following statements is incorrect? A) Blocking voltage-gated K+ channels in the presynaptic membrane of a typical chemical synapse is likely to reduce the amount of neurotransmitter released in response to a single action potential in the presynaptic axon. B) A single type of neurotransmitter can have different postsynaptic actions depending on the type of receptor to which it binds. C) In the optic tectum of the hunting rattlesnake, spatial summation is used to combine inputs from visual and thermoreceptive layers in order to make a decision whether to strike at a mouse-like object. D) Temporal summation occurs when a single synaptic input is activated twice in succession, with the second postsynaptic potential occurring before the first postsynaptic potential is over.
