Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nicotinic receptors are ligand-gated ion channels found in muscle fibers in the periphery and also in the brain at axoaxonic synapses. They are activated by the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which causes ion channels to open and allow the passage of ions, resulting in depolarization of the postsynaptic neuron. Therefore, choice B is the best answer.
