Acetylcholinesterase is the enzyme that stops muscle stimulation when the motor neuron ceases firing. This enzyme enables acetyl and choline to release their binding sites.
No, but skeletal muscle is.
Stimulation of a muscle by an impulse transmitted by a motor nerve refers to the process where a nerve signal triggers muscle contraction. When a motor neuron is stimulated, it releases neurotransmitters at the neuromuscular junction, leading to depolarization of the muscle cell membrane. This depolarization causes calcium ions to be released within the muscle fibers, ultimately resulting in the contraction of the muscle. This process is essential for voluntary movements and muscle coordination.
As the muscle workload increase, its threshold of stimulation increases.
The muscle is said to undergo Fatigue.
EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) and NMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation) are both forms of electrical stimulation used in muscle rehabilitation. EMS primarily targets muscle fibers to improve strength and endurance, while NMES focuses on stimulating nerves to activate muscle contractions. EMS is often used for muscle building and recovery, while NMES is commonly used for rehabilitation and muscle re-education. Both techniques can be effective in improving muscle function and aiding in recovery, but their specific applications and impacts on muscle stimulation differ.
uhhh
Impulses passed from motor neurons release neurotransmitters at the neuromuscular junction. This leads to the stimulation of muscle fibers and ultimately results in muscle contraction.
Smooth & cardiac muscle.
