Excitation/Contraction coupling.1.electrochemical signal aka _____. -____ enters stimulates NT release from motor neuron across synaptic cleft to motor end plate. NT= ________ Ach. Botulinus toxin ____ from bacteria, inhibits release of Ach, no muscle contraction including ____. |
Excitation/Contraction coupling. Electrochemical signal aka actin potential. -CaH
enters stimulates NT release from motor neuron across synaptic cleft to motor end plate. NT= acetylcholine Ach. Botulinus toxin botulism from bacteria, inhibits release of Ach, no muscle contraction including respiration. |
