Summary Introduction

To describe:  The fact that acetylcholine has an excitatory effect on skeletal system but an inhibitory effect on cardiac system by the help of a hypothesis.

Introduction: Neural transmission takes place by an efficient system which is nervous system. The information is taken up by the neurons that transmit the information to the brain for interpretation and then responds. The information is described in the form of stimuli that is detected by neural receptors.

fromthe Brain Stom 33. Acetylcholine (Ach) is the neurotransmitter at the neuro-muscular junction. The motor neuron releases Ach which diffuses across the synaptic cleft and binds to Ach- receptors (called nicotinic-receptors) on the post-synaptic muscle cell. Ach- receptor-blockers keep the Ach from binding to the nicotinic-receptors and therefore, block the action potential from occurring in the muscle-cell. This is the mode of inhibiting and paralyzing the skeletal muscles during surgery. Why might this be useful and necessary? a. without the Ach-receptor blocker the spinal-reflexes would cause the body to respond to the surgeons' knife. b. the ACh-receptor blocker is used to disable the motor cortex c. the ACh-receptor blocker completely inhibits the sympatheticand parasympathetic nervous systems, allowing the medical team to control all fundamental physiologic systems. d. the Ach-receptor blocker is used to disable the sensory cortex. piling the a Somatosons b.
