If the action of acetylcholinesterase is inhibited, acetylcholine is not degraded and would accumulate in the synaptic cleft and act as a constant stimulus to the muscle fiber. The muscle cells will continue to contract resulting in a condition called spastic paralysis.

Iron metal does not release hydrogen gas with acids?

Iron metal reacts with acids to form iron(II) salts and hydrogen gas. However, iron passivates quickly in the presence of oxygen, forming a protective oxide layer that inhibits the reaction with acids. This passivation inhibits the vigorous release of hydrogen gas often seen with other more reactive metals.


Why do you use salt and vinegar to preserve vegetables and fruits?

Salt and vinegar are used to preserve vegetables and fruits by creating an environment that inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria and mold. Salt draws out moisture, which helps slow down the spoilage process, while vinegar's acidity further inhibits microbial growth. This preservation technique has been used for centuries to extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables.
