What is a critical event that occurs at the neuromuscular junction?

Acetylcholine is released by axon terminals of the motor neuron.


What is a sustained muscle contraction?

Occurs when acetylcholine (ACh) accumulates in the neuromuscular junction. It is called a tetanic contraction.


Why the calcium decrease creates convulsion?

Since calcium deficiency causes the neurons to be depolarized easily, and thus repetitive depolarization occurs which will lead to accumulation of acetylcholine in the neuromuscular junction and can cause repetitive muscle contractions which can progress to tetany


What is breakdown voltage of diode?

The critical value of the voltage, at which the breakdown of a P-N junction diode occurs is called the breakdown voltage.The breakdown voltage depends on the width of the depletion region, which, in turn, depends on the doping level. The junction offers almost zero resistance at the breakdown point.


What is an adherens junction?

An adherens junction is a protein complex which occurs at cell-cell junctions in epithelial tissues.


How the arms move up and down?

Initially, Your brain sends motor information from the motor cortex to the ventral roots of the spinal column (ventral roots are topographically organized by what muscles they control). These neural projections end at the neuromuscular junctions that are in the arm. Once that information reaches the neuromuscular junction, depolarization of the muscle fiber occurs. Then the interaction between actin and myosin myofilaments causes your muscle fibres to contract or relax depending on whether you want to flex you arms or extend them.

Within the multicellular organism tissues, a cell junction occurs. Animals have four kinds of intercellular junctions which are gap junction, desmosomes, adherens junction and tight junction,

What is junction temperature of the transistor?

The junction temperature is limited by the relationship between temperature and life, and the characteristics of the materials composing the transistor. Furthermore, transistors use minority carriers and thus are easily affected by temperature. In particular , if the temperature rises in a reverse-biased collector-base junction, carriers are generated without relation to the signal, the operating point shifts, and in the worst case thermal runaway occurs and the transistor becomes damaged. For this reason, the circuit must be designed so as to prevent the junction temperature from rising. Transistor deterioration occurs quickly when the junction temperature rises.
