Includes the axon terminal of a motor neuron plus the motor end plate of a muscle fiber. Is where the axons of motor nerves meet the muscle & transmit messages from the brain which cause the muscle to contract & relax.

What does ach do at a neuromuscular junction?
ACh (acetylcholine) binds to receptors at the NMJ (neuromuscular junction) to induce contraction of muscle.
How does the neural signal get across the neuromuscular junction?
a neurotransmitter chemical crosses the junction.
A folded region of the sarcolemma at the neuromuscular junction?
At the neuromuscular junction (or presynaptic end) of the sarcolemma, it is referred to as end plate synapse potential.
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.
What is the narrow space that separates the motor neuron and the skeletal muscle fiber in a neuromuscular junction called?
Neuromuscular junction or neuromuscular synapse
What is the site where the muscle fiber and nerve fiber meet called?
Well of course they meet at the neuromuscular junction
What is the point of contact between a motor neuron and a skeletal muscle cell called?
This point is often called the neuromuscular junction or motor end plate. ?The neurotransmitter used here is acetylcholine.Many diseases occur with dysfunction at this junction, like Myesthenia Gravis, botulism, or Lambert Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome.
What does ach do at a neuromuscular junction?
ACh (acetylcholine) binds to receptors at the NMJ (neuromuscular junction) to induce contraction of muscle.
The junction between a motor neurons axon and the muscle cell membrane is called a neuromuscular junction or a?
The junction between a motor neruon's axon and the muscle cell membrane is called a neuromuscular junction or a myoneuraljunction?
Which neurotransmitter is released at the neuromuscular junction?
ACETYLCHOLINE
How does the neural signal get across the neuromuscular junction?
a neurotransmitter chemical crosses the junction.
What does the neuromuscular junction connect to?
The nervous system and the muscular system are connected by the neuromuscular junction. The connection is done with synapses between nerve and muscle fibers.
A folded region of the sarcolemma at the neuromuscular junction?
At the neuromuscular junction (or presynaptic end) of the sarcolemma, it is referred to as end plate synapse potential.
Type of junction where a motor neuron and a skeleton muscle cell have contact?
A neuromuscular junction.
The muscle-nerve interaction site?
Neuromuscular Junction
Which of the following is not a neuron-neuron synapse?
neuromuscular junction
What structures meet at neuromuscular junction?
An axon and the sarcolemma.
