Please help..
In a neuromuscular synapse, which of the following breaks down the neurotransmitter released from the axon?

The enzyme acetylcholinesterase
The motor end plate
The arrival of additional impulses at the axon terminal
The creation of additional synaptic vesicles

The correct answer for this question would be the first option. In a neuromuscular synapse, it is the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which is located at the motor end plate, that breaks down the neurotransmitter released from the axon. This is responsible for stimulating terminating the stimulation of the skeletal muscle cell to make it contract. Hope this answer helps.

Hello!

Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter released by cholinergic neurons responsible for contracting muscles (one of the major) and by learning and memory. In the case of muscle contraction, nerve transmission (in this case called neuromuscular transmission) occurs at a site called the neuromuscular junction, where the axon splits into several endings and binds to skeletal muscle fiber.   It is the product of the reaction between choline (lecithin component) and acetyl-CoA in the presence of the enzyme choline acetyltransferase.


Answer:

A. The enzyme acetylcholinesterase
