Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What must rush into a muscle cell to promote its depolarization?
A
potassium ions
B
calcium ions
C
acetylcholine
D
sodium ions
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine bind to receptors on the muscle surface and elicit a depolarization by causing sodium/calcium ions to enter through associated channels.

Detailed explanation-2: -The correct answer is (b): Depolarization occurs when sodium ions enter into the muscle fiber cell causing the membrane potential to move towards +30 mV.

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct option is, c. Opening of voltage gat…
