Inhibition of acetylcholine esterase (AChE)results in:
A) blockade of postsynaptic ACh receptors.
B) increased degradation of ACh.
C) decreased synthesis of ACh.
D) increased levels of ACh.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Inhibition of AChE stops the degradation of ACh, resulting in increased levels of ACh in the synaptic cleft. This leads to prolonged stimulation of postsynaptic ACh receptors, resulting in increased synaptic transmission.
