Question

A single neuron is stimulated at the central nervous system; this signal travels all the way to the target tissue, where the neurotransmitter acetylcholine is released onto the target tissue. the acetylcholine binds to a nicotinic receptor to induce skeletal muscle contraction. these steps describe the function of which branch of the efferent nervous system? choose the best answer.

Answer 1

These steps describe the function of the somato-motor branch of the efferent nervous system. It is the branch of the somatic nervous system (voluntary) that causes skeletal muscle contraction (motor).
If, however, it describes ACh initiating smooth muscle contraction via muscarinic, then that would be visceral motor (autonomic ns).
