Muscle cell are stimulated by nerve fiber called a?
[Edit]
What is the site where the muscle fiber and nerve fiber meet called?
Well of course they meet at the neuromuscular junction
The point of contract between the nerve ending and the muscle fiber is called a motor neuron?
Neuromuscular junction (NMJ)
Chemical that transmits a nerve stimulus to muscle fiber is?
acetylcholine
An electrical impulse moving down an axon is called?
This is called action potential. Action potential is the change in electrical potential that occurs between the inside and outside of a nerve or muscle fiber when it is stimulated, serving to transmit nerve signals.
What is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum of a muscle cell?
What is a synapse between a nerve fiver and a muscle fiber
What is the term for termination of the nerve axon on the skeletal muscle fiber?
ganglionic synapse
Which substance is stored in the muscle's endoplasmic reticulum and then released when a nerve signal stimulates a muscle fiber?
Calcium ions
What process is called a nerve fiber?
Dendrites
What is the all none law of muscle response?
all-or-none law is the principle that the strength by which a nerve or muscle fiber responds to a stimulus is not dependent on the strength of the stimulus. If the stimulus is any strength above threshold, the nerve or muscle fiber will give a complete response or otherwise no response at all
What is sacrolemma?
The sarcolemma is the cell membrane of a muscle fiber. It surrounds and protects the muscle fiber and controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell. The sarcolemma plays a crucial role in muscle contraction and the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscle fiber.
What is a long nerve fiber that convey electrical impulses to other cells is called a?
A long nerve fiber that conveys electrical impulses to other cells is called an axon.
