What is the role of acetylcholine in muscle contraction?
Acetylcholine is the chemical signal the nerve sends to the muscle to cause contraction.
OR Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that stimulates muscle contraction at the neuromuscular junction. It does this by allowing Ca(2+) into the muscle cell. Thus acetylcholinesterase allows for the contraction to stop.
Acetylecholine is a neurotransmitter secreted by nerves and it interacts with is receptors located on the muscle. that interaction lead to the contraction of muscles.after a specific time ,acetylcolineasterase destroy the acetylcholine after specific time to inhibit muscle movement .if acetylcolineasterase fails to destroy acetylcholine ,muscle continue to move leading to a pathological state called "Epilipsy"
