The binding of the neurotransmitter to receptors on the motor end plate causes which of the following to occur?
lutik1710 [3]

The correct answer is: 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.

Action potential travels through the membrane of the presynaptic cell causing the voltage-gated channels permeable to calcium ions to open. Ca2+ flow through the presynaptic membrane and increase the Ca concentration in the cell which will activate proteins attached to vesicles that contain a neurotransmitter (e.g. acetylcholine). Vesicles fuse with the membrane of the presynaptic cell, thereby release their contents into the synaptic cleft-space between the membranes of the pre- and postsynaptic cells. Neurotransmitter ACh binds to its receptors on the postsynaptic membrane and its binding causes depolarization of the target cell (muscle cell). Depolarization occurs because sodium enters the cell as a result of neurotransmitter receptor binding.

Why is it difficult to avoid a tsunami?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

It is difficult to avoid a tsunami due to it being such a large volume of water that is capable of destroying a large amount of land.

Explanation:

However, even though it is difficult to avoid a tsunami, as they are extremely difficult to predict, there are ways where one can begin to prepare before it hits. One of the ways you can do this is getting to a higher ground far away from inland, avoiding downed power lines, and steering clear of buildings or bridges where large, heavy objects could fall during an aftershock.

Tsunamis are incredibly dangerous, since there is a great chance that if you get caught in one, you can drown. Since tsunamis have little to no warning when they arrive, it is always essential to be prepared when one strikes.

I hope this helped! :)
