Synapse formed at the sites where the terminal branches of the axon of a motor neuron conduct a target muscle cell is called:
Correct answer: C. Motor end plate
- A. Sensory end plate
- B. Synapse end plate
- C. Motor end plate
- D. Postsynaptic membrane
Explanation
The site where terminal branches of the axon of a motor neuron form a synapse with the target muscle cell is called the motor end plate.The synapse end plate is a term that is not used.The sensory end plate is also a term that is also not known.The postsynaptic membrane is the term used for the membrane to which the neurotransmitters are released.

About Coordination and Control
Coordination depends on receptors, neurons, synapses and nerve impulses, with reflex actions traced through the reflex arc and the roles of major brain regions. Chemical coordination covers endocrine glands and hormones, including how hormones regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and internal balance, unlike rapid nervous control.
