The association site of a nerve and a muscle is called a neuromuscular junction. At this specialized synapse, motor neurons release neurotransmitters, such as acetylcholine, which bind to receptors on the muscle fiber's membrane, leading to muscle contraction. This junction is crucial for the communication between the nervous system and muscle tissue, enabling voluntary movement.
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
The area where the muscle and nerve fiber intersect is called what?
The area where muscle and nerve fibers intersect is called the neuromuscular junction. This junction is functions as the site of communication that connects the nervous and muscular system.
The muscle-nerve interaction site?
Neuromuscular Junction
What injection site should be used to administer nerve agent antidote and anticonvulsant?
Upper outer buttocks; where the muscle is dense
What inject site should be used to administer nerve agent antidote and anticonvulsant injections?
Upper outer buttocks; where the muscle is dense
What site where the motor neuron and muscle cell meet is called the?
The site where a motor neuron and muscle cell meet is called the neuromuscular junction. This is where the motor neuron releases neurotransmitters that signal the muscle cell to contract.
Which is an endangerment site located in the anterior elbow?
The cubital fossa is an endangerment site located in the anterior elbow. This is a triangular depression on the anterior aspect of the elbow formed by the biceps brachii muscle laterally and the brachioradialis muscle and pronator teres muscle medially.
Is there information on the Venus nerve surgery for depression?
The procedure is called VAGUS NERVE STIMULATION. Try a search on that and a lot of websites will come up. The company site is http://www.vnstherapy.com/
Name the site of close juxtaposition of an end terminal and the sarcolemma of a muscle cell?
It is called the neuromuscular junction.
What term identifies the site where a muscle attaches to the bone it pulls on?
The term that identifies the site where a muscle attaches to the bone it pulls on is called the "insertion." This is typically the more movable attachment of the muscle, as opposed to the origin which is the less movable attachment site.
What happens to the electrical connection of a nerve in the human body if the nerve is cut?
If a nerve is cut, the electrical connection is disrupted, and signals cannot pass through. This can result in loss of sensation and muscle function beyond the site of the injury. The nerve may regenerate over time, but recovery depends on various factors.
What is the disadvantage of nerve grafting?
One disadvantage of nerve grafting is the limited availability of donor nerves, which can sometimes require harvesting from another part of the body and result in additional surgical sites and potential complications. Additionally, nerve grafting may not always achieve full functional recovery, as the regenerated nerves may not fully restore sensation or muscle function.
