Which of these junctions represents the connection between the tip of a neuron and a skeletal muscle cell from which Acetylcholine diffuses?
Neuromuscular
Why is that electrical impulses cannot pass from neuron to muscle cell?
The synapse, or connection, between a neuron and striated muscle is typically a chemical one called the neuromuscular junction. The pre-synaptic terminus coming from the neuron releases acetylcholine (ACh) which triggers an opening of the ionic channels on the muscle side. The depolarization triggers calcium entry into the cytosol of the muscle and contraction.
What position on the muscle cell where the nerve fibers connect?
The term for the connection between a muscle cell and a neuron is the neuromuscular junction.
Which of these cells are likely to have multiple nuclei skeletal muscle cardiac muscle smooth muscle or neuron?
skeletal smooth muscle neuron
Is neuron a muscle?
No.
What type of neuron connects to a muscle?
A motor or efferent neuron.
What is a motor neuron attached to?
A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.
Which type of muscle requires a motor neuron?
Skeletal muscle.
What is the pathway of an impulse in a reflex arc?
Sensory receptor, sensory neuron, interneuron, motor neuron, and muscle.
What is the place where a neuron communicate with a muscle fiber or gland or another neuron?
synapse
The combination of a neuron and the muscle fibers it associates with is called?
Motor unit = the single motor neuron and the multiple muscle fibers that it innervates.
Just what does pass from neuron to the muscle cells?
via chemicals called neurotransmitters, expressed at sites called synapses, which are tiny gaps between a neuron and another neuron or a muscle cell.
