Question
Chapter 14.6, Problem 8CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
Whether nicotinic receptors will be present on skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, eccrine sweat glands, and adrenal medulla or central nervous system neurons.
Introduction:
The two major neurotransmitters released by the ANS (autonomic nervous system) are norepinephrine and acetylcholine. Cholinergic fibers are those fibers that release acetylcholine, whereas, the adrenergic fibers are those fibers that release norepinephrine.

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors allow both sodium and potassium to flow across
the cell membrane when the receptors are activated. Which statement is true
about the flow of ions through nicotinic receptors?
Potassium only flows through an open nicotinic receptor only when there is no sodium
present.
More sodium ions pass through an open nicotinic receptor than pass potassium ions.
An equal number of sodium and potassium ions pass through an open nicotinic receptor.
O More potassium ions pass through an open nicotinic receptor than pass sodium ions.
