Calcium rushes into pre-synaptic terminal and initiates exocytosis. Electric current from action potential open up voltage gated calcium channels. ACH receptors open the associated gated channels (Na+ gated channels) Na+ rushes through the open channels into the muscle cell causing a large depolarization. Neurotransmitter (from the synaptic vesicles) is released into the cleft. After the initial depolarization of the muscle cell, the muscle cell releases Acetylcholinesterase (ACHE). The electric current in the T-tubules shocks the sarcoplasmic reticulum (opening voltage gated calcium channels) and causes calcium to spill into the cytoplasm of the muscle cell. ACHE begins to destroy the ACH in the synaptic cleft. The wave of…arrow_forward
