question 26 (1 point) saved listen what is the primary neurotransmitter at the neuromuscular junction? acetylcholine dopamine serotonin gaba atp
At the neuromuscular junction, the nerve impulse is transmitted to the muscle fiber. Acetylcholine is released from the motor neuron terminal. It binds to receptors on the muscle cell membrane (sarcolemma), causing depolarization and initiating muscle contraction. Dopamine is involved in reward - related pathways and motor control in the brain. Serotonin is associated with mood, sleep, etc. GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. ATP is a molecule for energy transfer, not the primary neurotransmitter at the neuromuscular junction.
