What is the name of the point at which motor neuron synapses motor end plate?
cappilaries is the name of the point at which motor neuron synases motor end plate
Which neurotransmitter receptor is present on the sarcolemma?
End of the muscle fiber I think it is the motor end plate
What causes an action potential when it binds the motor end plate?
Chemically gated sodium channels open up when neurotransmitters bind to receptors in the motor end plate. This causes an action potential along a muscle membrane or nerve cell.
Binding of neurotransmitter to the receptors on the motor endplate open?
Binding of the neurotransmitter causes chemically gated sodium channels to open in the motor end plate. Further down the line, this would cause muscle contraction through the release of Ca2+ from the SR.
Contraction mechanism in a skeletal muscle cell?
ACH is released at the end-plate potential. ACH diffuses into the sarcolemma, attaches to the receptors in the motor end plate and causes a change in the ions permeability that creates graded depolarization of the end-plate potential. Basically, it attaches to the receptors in the motor-end plate and creates the beginning process of triggering muscle contractions.
What is the name of the point at which motor neuron synapses motor end plate?
cappilaries is the name of the point at which motor neuron synases motor end plate
Is curare poisoning affected by the motor end plate or the axon terminal?
myasthenia gravis is affected by the motor end plate .it is a autoimmune disorder caused by the formation of circulating antibodies to the nicotinic A-ch receptors present in motor end plate.
What happens to the muscle membrane when acetylcholine binds to receptors at the motor plate?
When acetylcholine binds to receptors at the motor plate, this binding opens ligand-gated ion channels on the motor end plate, ions diffuse through the open ligand gated ion channels, and the flow of ions causes the motor end plate to reach threshold and an action potential is generated at the motor end plate.
How does a motor neuron form a synapse with a muscle cell?
motor end plate
What is the neurotransmitter released at the motor end plate?
Acetylcholine
A motor neuron and all the muscle cells that it stimulates are referred to as a motor end plate?
false, it would be a motor unit.
Synapse formed between the axon terminals of a motor neuron and the motor end plate of a muscle fiber?
Neuromuscular Junction
Which neurotransmitter receptor is present on the sarcolemma?
End of the muscle fiber I think it is the motor end plate
At the neuromuscular junction the muscle fiber membrane is folded to form?
motor end plate
What happens if the presynaptic membrane of a motor neuron suddenly becomes permeable to calcium ion?
The motor end plate will be depolarized.If you found this answer for A&P then on the next unanswered question you come across once you find the answer type it in to help your fellow brothers out.The motor end plate will be depolarized.
A deficiency of ACh receptors in a motor end plate would cause and is called?
myasthenia gravis
What causes an action potential when it binds the motor end plate?
Chemically gated sodium channels open up when neurotransmitters bind to receptors in the motor end plate. This causes an action potential along a muscle membrane or nerve cell.
