Order the molecular events required for the propagation of an action potential beginning with acetylcholine release from the presynaptic cell. Part 1

Acetylcholine (ACh) is released from presynaptic cell (2pts)

2
New cards


Order the molecular events required for the propagation of an action potential beginning with acetylcholine release from the presynaptic cell. Part 2

ACh travels across the synaptic cleft (1pt)

3
New cards


Order the molecular events required for the propagation of an action potential beginning with acetylcholine release from the presynaptic cell. Part 3

Binds to the ligand-gated ion channel on the postsynaptic cell (2pts)

4
New cards


Order the molecular events required for the propagation of an action potential beginning with acetylcholine release from the presynaptic cell. Part 4

Na+ is allowed into the cell, depolarizing the membrane (3pts)

5
New cards


Order the molecular events required for the propagation of an action potential beginning with acetylcholine release from the presynaptic cell. Part 5

This depolarization causes the voltage-gated ion channels to then open, propagating the signal (2pts)
