Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter in brain,ganglion's of autonomic nervous system, and at post ganglionic nerve ending of parasympathetic fibers.It is also released at motor end plate. After it's release, in synaptic cleft, it transmits the nerve impulse to next target. Within fewmilliseconds it is destroyed by the enzyme 'acetylcholinesterase'. In case of nor-adrenaline, there is 're-uptake' by neurons.

What is responsible for degrading acetylcholine so that it does not remain in the synapse?

acetylcholinesterase


Why doesn't acetylcholine remain on the post-synaptic process?

Acetylcholine (ACh) does not remain on the post-synaptic membrane because it is rapidly broken down by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. This enzymatic degradation occurs in the synaptic cleft, preventing prolonged stimulation of the post-synaptic receptors. Additionally, the reuptake of choline into the pre-synaptic neuron helps recycle components for future neurotransmitter synthesis. This process ensures that synaptic transmission is brief and precisely regulated.

What makes sure that there is one action potential in the neuromuscular junction for one action potential in the muscle?

After a neuron fires, there is a refractory period where certain factors in the neuron prevent it from being depolarized again. This is made possible by an "overshoot" of polarization (returning to a much stronger negative ion charge inside the neuron) after the action potential passes. This ensures that voltage-controlled ion channels remain closed for a small period of time and do not become overactive through continuous restimulation.
