What is the role of the nervous system in animals?
Which of the following statements regarding the motor end plate in the somatic motor division of the nervous system is true?
After the activation of voltage-gated calcium channels, the neuron releases ACh onto the muscarinic receptors on the surface of the highly folded area of the muscle fibre.
The preganglionic nerve fibre releases ACh onto the postganglionic nerve fibre, which then releases ACh onto the cholinergic receptors of the motor end plate.
Chemically gated monovalent cation channels on the motor end plate are activated once the motor neuron releases ACh onto the nicotinic receptors on the surface of the muscle cell.
The AChE enzyme enhances the amount of ACh released into the neuromuscular junction

- What are the main differences between the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the autonomic nervous system?arrow_forwardOn a field trip to a lake, a college student captures a worm-shaped animal with segmented body wall muscles. While examining the specimen in the laboratory the following day, she determines that the main nerve cord runs along the ventral side of the animal. Is this animal a chordate?arrow_forwardThe reflex arc is the fastest way the body has to move a body part from danger or away from the source of pain. Have you ever noticed your own reflex response? Did you notice that you felt the pain after you yanked your hand away from the source of pain? Which is the sequence of structures involved in a reflex response? a. motor neurons → effectors → brain → sensory neurons → interneurons b. effectors → sensory neurons → brain → motor neurons c. sensory neurons → interneurons → motor neurons → effectors d. sensory neurons → motor neurons → interneurons → effectorsarrow_forward
- What Are the Structures and Functions of the Human Nervous System?arrow_forwardWatch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/neurotrans) to learn about the release of a neurotransmitter. The action potential reaches the end of the axon, called the axon terminal, and a chemical signal is released to tell the target cell to do something—either to initiate a new action potential, or to suppress that activity. In a very short space, the electrical signal of the action potential is changed into the chemical signal of a neurotransmitter and then back to electrical changes in the target cell membrane. What is the importance of voltage-gated calcium channels in the release of neurotransmitters?arrow_forwardThe venom of many cobras contains a potent neurotoxin that binds to ligand-gated Na+ channels,causing them to open. Unlike ACh, which binds to and then rapidly unbinds from ligand-gated Na+ channels, the neurotoxin tends to remain bound to ligand-gated Na+ channels. How does this neurotoxin affect the nervous system’s ability to stimulate skeletal muscle contraction? How does it affect the ability of skeletal muscle fibers to respond to stimulation?arrow_forward
- Alcohol addiction is a condition in which a person experiencesdependent on alcohol and difficult to control its consumption. On the other hand, excessive alcohol consumption in the long term can cause disturbances in brain performance, including disturbances in memory, attention, coordination, and locomotion. How does alcohol affect the functioning of nerve cells and the central nervous system? What is the mechanism that occurs? Based on information from the literature, analyze what will happen to coordination and locomotion in someone who is addicted to alcohol and consumes large amounts of alcohol over a long period of time.arrow_forwardWhat are the effects of acetylcholine and norepinephrine as they relate to the functioning of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system? Why has extract of deadly nightshade been an effective remedy for digestive cramps for over 2000 years?arrow_forwardAcetylcholine is an excitatory neurotransmitter that is responsible for initiating muscle movement. Consider the scenario where a mouse was bitten by a snake that injected venom into their circulatory system. The venom has an inhibitory effect on the reuptake of acetylcholine from the synaptic cleft. Explain how the mouse’s body would respond to the venom as well as the venoms effect at the cellular level.arrow_forward
- How do sensory neurons differ from motor neurons? I. Sensory neurons carry impulses from the receptor to the brain while motor neurons carry impulses from the brain to the effector. II. Sensory neurons carry impulses from the brain to the effector while motor neurons carry impulses from the receptor to the brain. II. Sensory neurons carry impulses triggered by stimulus from the organ to the brain while motor neurons carry processed information from the brain to the organ to response. IV. Sensory neurons carry processed information from the brain to the organ to response while motor neurons carry impulses triggered by stimulus from the organ to the brain. * O I and III only O Il and IV only O I and IV only O Il and III onlyarrow_forwardWhich of the following is an example of antagonistic control? O The parasympathetic nervous system originates from the brain stem and pelvic nerves, while the sympathetic arises from the thoracic and lumbar spinal cord. O Sympathetic stimulation causes renin secretion by the kidneys, but the kidneys are not innervated by the parasympathetic nervous system. O Parasympathetic stimulation causes bronchoconstriction, while sympathetic stimulation causes bronchodilation. O The vagus nerve innervates much of the viscera, changing the function of each of them independently of the others.arrow_forwardwould you state that the neural pathway involved in the Achille's tendon reflex is myelinated or unmyelinated?What is the advantage to having a myelinated reflex pathway?arrow_forward
