Practice question
Question
The distance across an electrical synapse (gap junction) is approximately:
Explanation
Pick B: 3.8 nm. Thinking about Synapse in a practical way — what the structure does, or what the process achieves — leads you here. Clinically and academically, the same logic shows up again and again: 3.8 nm is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Synapse. Hence 3.8 nm is correct. Treat this as a building block for the rest of Synapse; neighbouring topics often reuse the same principle. Keep a one-line summary card for this idea and revisit it before the paper; short, repeated review beats long cramming sessions. If the wording feels dense, translate it into everyday language first, then map that plain sentence back onto 3.8 nm.
