Question
Chapter 15.5, Problem 15WDYL
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Whether the effect is inhibitory or stimulatory, if a neurotransmitter binds to the nicotinic effector.
Concept introduction:
There are two categories of receptors that are cholinergic. These are the muscarinic and the nicotinic receptors. These receptors have been identified in the PNS (peripheral nervous system) and CNS (central nervous system).
