Is acetylcholine the substance released by the axon terminals of both somatic motor neurons and postganglionic parasympathetic neurons?
True
What are the two neurotransmitters that axon terminals of autonomic neurons release?
Nonepinephrine and acetylcholine
What is the neurotransmitter of alpha-motor neuron?
Alpha-Motor neurons release the neurotransmitter acetylcholine at a synapse called the neuromuscular junction. When the acetylcholine binds to acetylcholine receptors on the muscle fiber, an action potential is propagated along the muscle fiber in both directions.
What is the chemical transmitter released at the neuromuscular junction?
The neurotransmitter acetylcholine is released into the synaptic cleft to bind with receptors on muscle cells. Upon binding, the muscle cells contract.
What Interconnects neurons and communication between cerebral hemispheres?
the medulla oblongata
What do cholinergic neurons secrete?
Cholinergic neurons secrete acetylcholine.
Where are the cell bodies of cerebral neurons housed?
the cerebral neurons are housed in the cerebrums outer region called the CEREBRAL CORTEX
Alzheimers disease is most closely linked to the deterioration of neurons that produce?
Acetylcholine.
What do all motor neurons manufacture?
Acetylcholine
What type of excitatory neurotransmitter is secreted by motor neurons innervating skeletal muscle?
Acetylcholine is the excitatory neurotransmitter released by neurons innervating skeletal muscles. Acetylcholine release stimulates muscle contraction by acting at the nicotinic-acetylcholine receptor on the surface of the muscle cell.
The neurotransmitter released by somatic motor neurons is?
Acetylcholine
What act as a facilitator of communication between neurons?
acetylcholine
What is the chemical responsible for most synaptic transmission in neurons?
acetylcholine
What is in the cerebral cortex?
In the cerebral cortex there are 6 layers of neurons (grey matter).
Is acetylcholine the substance released by the axon terminals of both somatic motor neurons and postganglionic parasympathetic neurons?
True
When is acetycholine released?
acetylcholine is released from presynaptic neurons in response to a nerve impulse
What are the two neurotransmitters that axon terminals of autonomic neurons release?
Nonepinephrine and acetylcholine
