Laxative abuse is common in individuals who obsessively need to lose weight or who have an eating disorder. It is a widespread belief that laxative abuse controls body weight; this is false. It instead causes the body to lose water and essential minerals; a condition that can be life threatening. Excessive use of laxative or laxative abuse can lead to hypokalemia which is a deficiency of of potassium ions in the blood.

Acetylcholine receptors on skeletal muscles are described as being ionotropic receptors because
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

they are Na+, K+ and Ca2+ ion channels.

Explanation:

Ionotropic acetylcholine receptors are also called nicotinic acetylcholine receptors because beside acetylcholine (Ch) they respond to nicotine. These receptors are  primary receptors in muscle for motor nerve-muscle communication that controls muscle contraction.

Two molecules of ACh are required for receptor to open. Since the receptors are  linked to ion channels, the channels open. Opening of the channel allows positively charged ions to move across it: sodium enters the cell and potassium exits.
