What stimulates intestinal muscle contractions?
Nicotien or anything chemical which stimulates the Nicotinic receptors.
What ions serve as a trigger for muscle contractions by removing the inhibition of the troponin molecule?
Calcium ions
What would happen to people exposed to a chemical warfare agent that blocked acetylcholine from binding to muscle receptors?
Muscle contractions would be prevented, causing paralysis.
Where does the acetylcholine released for muscle contraction bind?
Sarcolema receptors
What is the role of acetylcholine in skeletal muscle contractions?
acetylcholine as far as i know is a neurotransmitter that ativates the mscle cells.
What effect does Curare have on muscle tissue?
It blocks the nicotinic cholinergic receptors on the muscle that normally bind the acetylcholine released by the motor neuron.
What process involves muscle contractions that move food through the esophagus molecules?
Different types of muscle contractions
What is an Isotonic Contractions?
Isotonic contractions. This happens when the muscle shortens as it contracts
What reaches the end of the axon when the neurotransmitter is released and diffuses to the muscle membrane to combine with receptors there?
nerve impulse
Does isotonic muscle contractions involve shortening of muscle?
Yes
What do Cholinesterase Inhibitors actually do?
They stop the production of the enzyme in the body called cholineesterase which is released during muscle contractions and so it makes the muscle unable to move.
The strongest muscle contractions are normally achieved by what?
The strongest muscle contractions are normally achieved by increasing the stimulation up to the maximal stimulus. There are various classifications of contractions, including eccentric and concentric.
