The binding of the neurotransmitter to receptors on the motor end plate causes which of the following to occur?

Biology
1 answer:
dmitriy555 [2]2 years ago
4 0

The correct answer is: D) Binding of the neurotransmitter causes chemically gated sodium channels to open in the motor end plate (junctional folds of the sarcolemma) and sodium enters the cell.

The motor neuron cell is connected to muscle cell via synaptic cleft, where neurotransmitter is released. The muscle side of this synapse is called motor end plate. Released neurotransmitter is acetylcholine and it binds to its receptor (ACh receptor) on the motor end plate. As it binds, ion channels open, and Na+ gets into the muscle cell. This event reduces the voltage difference between the inside and outside of the cell and causes  depolarization which creates a wave through the entire muscle cell (its membrane-sarcolema). As a consequence, Ca2+ is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum which will cause the contraction of the muscle cell.

Analyze the model of the cell membrane below. Which of the following statements is true about the phospholipid components of the
MArishka [77]

Answer:

This question appears incomplete but The correct option is the last option

Explanation:

Cell membranes are made up of a lipid/phospholipid bilayer in which each layer consists of an hydrophilic head (water loving) and a hydrophobic tail (water fearing). The hydrophobic tail of each layer is oriented inward and the hydrophilic heads are oriented outward so the cell can interact with water molecules inside (the cytoplasm) and outside the cell environment. This orientation forms a critical part of the function of the cell membrane that makes it a selectively permeable barrier that regulates what goes in and out of the cell.
