When looking at a Neuromuscular Junction (NMJ), we know that neurotransmitters (NT) are released from the presynaptic cell and they then bind to the receptors that are located on the postsynaptic cell - this causes the effect of the NT being released.
So we are told that NT are still being released, however they are not having an effect. This would mean that they are probably being blocked by something - in this case, it seems that the neurotoxin is the culprit in the blocking of these receptors.
Therefore, if the NT cannot bind to the receptors on the postsynaptic cell, they are not going to have any effect, no matter how much NT is being released.
So the answer in this case is: The neurotoxin is most likely C) Blocking the receptors on the postsynaptic cell.
i think c. is the best answer , we just got off that topic like a week ago .
The sensory receptors located on a frog's head assist it in the water through protection and flotation. The receptors hold the frogs head above the water, and the frog uses this as an advantage to see if there is any predators or prey around to help it survive. Hope this helps!
1) This includes two leaf-feeding beetles, one root-boring weevil and one flower-feeding weevil. ... calmariensis are leaf-eating beetles which seriously affect growth and seed production by feeding on the leaves and new shoot growth of purple loosestrife plants.
