Ch 9 - Signaling at Nerve Muscle Synapse Flashcards
neuron synapses onto blank of the muscle
end plate
a muscle only has blank innervation
single nerve
ach receptors are blank
nicotinic
basal lamina is composed of blank and blank proteins
collagen, matrix
basal lamina contains blank
acetylcholinesterase
acetylcholinesterase blank acetylcholine
breaks down
since blank are not in the periphery, acetylcholinesterase is there to turn off signals
astrocytes
ach is a blank gated channel
ligand
end plate potential is blank than action potential
smaller
ach receptors will create a blank potential, but when paired with sodium voltage gated receptors blank can be formed
end plate, action potential
CNS relies on blank to create an action potential unlike for a muscle cell
spatial summation (multiple signals)
this stops an action potential from happening by turning down blank receptors to decrease the blank potential
curare, ach, end plate
when membrane becomes positive, blank has a higher flux
potassium
when membrane is negative, blank flux is dominant
sodium
