The neuromuscular transmitter released at neuromuscular junction is_______________?
Correct answer: B. Acetylcholine
- A. Dopamine
- B. Acetylcholine
- C. Nor epinephrine
- D. Epinephrine
Explanation
Somatic motor neurons release acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, where it activates nicotinic receptors on the muscle end plate. Dopamine and catecholamines are not the normal neuromuscular transmitter.
