What is the function of the neuromuscular junction is to?

Includes the axon terminal of a motor neuron plus the motor end plate of a muscle fiber. Is where the axons of motor nerves meet the muscle & transmit messages from the brain which cause the muscle to contract & relax.


What is the action of dopamine on the postsynaptic membrane?

All neurotransmitters have an effect on the post synaptic membrane of either inhibition or excitation. Dopamine is an Excitatory NT so if a Excitatory Neuron meets with another Excitatory Neuron it creates Excitation. However if it meets with an Inhibitory Neuron Dopamine and the other Excitatory NT's wll only create Inhibition. Only GABA and Glycine are considered Inhhibitory NTransmitters.


Which river meets the Mississippi River at Cairo Illinois?

Cairo, Illinois is located at the junction of the Mississippi and Ohio rivers.


What is posterior vulva junction?

The posterior vulva junction is where the vagina meets the external genitalia. It is located at the back of the vulva and plays a role in sexual function and childbirth. In some medical contexts, this area may also be referred to as the perineum.


The junction between the cornea and sclera is what?

The junction between the cornea and sclera is called the limbus. It serves as the boundary where the transparent cornea meets the opaque sclera, playing a crucial role in maintaining the health of the eye. The limbus contains stem cells that are essential for corneal regeneration and also houses blood vessels and nerves. This area is important for the overall function and protection of the eye.

What Section of the tooth where the anatomical crown meets the anatomical root is called?

The section of the tooth where the anatomical crown meets the anatomical root is called the cementoenamel junction (CEJ). This junction marks the transition between the enamel covering the crown and the cementum covering the root.


Where neuron meets neuron?

they meet in the cns or relay naurone


What is the area on the tooth where the cementum meets the enamel?

The area of the tooth where the cementum meets the enamel is called the cementoenamel junction or CEJ for short.


Where axon terminal located in the NMJ?

The axon terminal is located at the end of a motor neuron, where it meets the muscle fiber at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). This is where communication between the neuron and muscle fiber occurs, allowing for the transmission of signals that trigger muscle contractions.


What is it called when one river meets another river and makes one river and?

When one river meets another, it is called a tributary.


What is the transmission zone of a neuron?

I have never heard of the term 'transmission zone' (which may be someone's personal name for what I'm about to explain) but neurons send their chemical signals across what is known as a synapse, the region where the axon of one neuron meets up with another neuron (most often a dendrite). The space between these two neurons (the non-neuron space in the synapse) is called the synaptic cleft. Through this space, neurotransmitters pass through and act on the receiving neuron once they reach it.
