When low amounts of calcium are added back to the extracellular solution, the expected outcome is that neurotransmitter release will increase a small amount. This is because calcium ions are crucial for the process of neurotransmitter release at synapses, and even a low concentration can facilitate some amount of vesicle fusion with the pre-synaptic membrane and subsequent release of neurotransmitters, albeit not to the full capacity that would occur at normal calcium levels. The best answer would be:
• Neurotransmitter release will increase a small amount.
