What else can I help you with?
What is the site where the muscle fiber and nerve fiber meet called?
Well of course they meet at the neuromuscular junction
Why is ''botox'' an effective anti-wrinkle treatment.describe its mechanism of action with reference to the neuromuscular junction?
"Botox" is actually a poison. It prevents muscle movement by preventing the nerve impulse to travel from the neuron across the neuromuscular junction and prevents the muscle from contracting. It is the toxin produced by the microbe that causes botulism.
What does ach do at a neuromuscular junction?
ACh (acetylcholine) binds to receptors at the NMJ (neuromuscular junction) to induce contraction of muscle.
The axon terminals of a nerve cell and the sarcolemma of a skeletal muscle cell join at the?
The axon terminals of a nerve cell and the sarcolemma of a skeletal muscle cell join at the neuromuscular junction. This is where the nerve impulse triggers the release of neurotransmitters, such as acetylcholine, which initiate muscle contraction by binding to receptors on the sarcolemma.
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?
The muscle-nerve interaction site?
Neuromuscular Junction
Type of junction where a motor neuron and a skeleton muscle cell have contact?
Neuromuscular junction. It is the point of contact between the motor neuron and the skeletal muscle cell, where the motor neuron releases neurotransmitters that trigger muscle contraction.
What position on the muscle cell where the nerve fibers connect?
The point where a nerve fiber connects to a muscle cell is known as the neuromuscular junction. This connection allows the nerve signal, or action potential, to be transmitted from the nerve to the muscle cell, triggering muscle contraction.
When a muscle contracts and relax it is called?
Spasm
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.
The synapse of a motor neuron with a muscle fiber is known as the what?
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.
