- Which of the following statements best explains the effect of release of neurotransmitter at a parasympathetic ganglion. Release of noradrenaline at a parasympathetic ganglion causes nicotinic acetylcholine receptor activation in the post-ganglionic neuron. Release of acetylcholine at a parasympathetic ganglion causes nicotinic acetylcholine receptor activation in the post-ganglionic neuron. Release of acetylcholine at a parasympathetic ganglion causes muscarinic acetylcholine receptor activation in the post-ganglionic neuron.
