Could you specify what you are looking for because there would a lot of ways to weaken a contraction, such as releasing acetylcholinesterase, myastenia gravis, etc.Uber wrote:Think of 3 ways to stop or weaken a muscle contraction.

Re: Anatomy & Physiology B/C
Ok then.
What is the distance between the presynaptic axon and the motor endplate at the neuromuscular junction?

The synaptic cleft is the region between the presynaptic terminal and postsynaptic membrane.

Re: Anatomy & Physiology B/C
You are correct, but I was asking for the exact distance between the presynpatic terminal and motor endplate, with units.bhavjain wrote:sciolyFTW_aku wrote:Ok then.

Re: Anatomy & Physiology B/C
Yay! Time for some Skeletal bony processes (because its what I missed at Regionals!)
Label the attached image! Tell whether it is right or left, and posterior or anterior, and how you know![attachment=0]humerusanterior1318391323541.jpg[/attachment]
