Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Within the axonal endings are many small vesicles containing a neurotransmitter substance called ____
A
acetylcholine
B
isotonic contraction
C
fatigue
D
isometric contraction
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Acetylcholine is released by the axonal ending, diffuses to the muscle cell, and attaches to the ACh receptors on the sarcolemma. The calcium concentration at the myofilaments increas; the myofilaments slide past one another, and the cell shortens. The muscle cell relaxes and lengthens.

Detailed explanation-2: -Synaptic vesicles (SVs) are small, electron-lucent vesicles that are clustered at presynaptic terminals. They store neurotransmitters and release them by calcium-triggered exocytosis.
