B) diffusion of neurotransmitter across the synapse → binding of neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic membrane → release of neurotransmitter from the presynaptic cell
C) release of neurotransmitter from the presynaptic cell → binding of neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic membrane → diffusion of neurotransmitter across the synapse
D) release of neurotransmitter from the presynaptic cell → diffusion of neurotransmitter across the synapse → binding of neurotransmitter at the postsynaptic membrane
