Of the following, which must be true for an action potential? I - Action potentials only occur when the threshold potential has been exceeded.II - A stimulus produces a full action potential, or does not produce an action potential at allIII - During the undershoot phase, it is much harder to fire another action potential I, II, and III I only I and III II and III
Order the steps of the neuromuscular junction transmission using the following images. Then, usethe to describe what is happening in the step. Neuromuscular Junction Transmission - Contraction 1. Action potential travels from motor neuron cell body along the myelinated axon to neuromuscular junction. 2. Acetylcholine (ACh) is released from axon (neuron), crosses synapse (space between axon and sarcolemma).ACh binds to ACh receptors (channel) in sarcolemma. 3.ACh channels open. Ions (like sodium, Na+) flow into sarcolemma.Action potential spreads in sarcolemma and into transverse tubules. 4. Action potential causes the release of calcium (Ca2+) from sarcoplasmic reticulum into sarcoplasm 5.Ca2+ goes to the troponin, which moves the tropomyosin away from actin 6. Myosin head breaks down ATP, causing the sliding filament mechanism to shorten sarcomereMuscle contracts
