When intensive stimulation causes the resynthesis and transport mechanisms of acetylcholine to be unable to keep pace with demands for ACh, these events are called:
A) synaptic fatigue.
B) synaptic delay.
C) synaptic terminal.
D) synaptic transmission.
E) axodendritic synapse.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Synaptic fatigue occurs when the mechanisms responsible for the resynthesis and transport of acetylcholine (ACh) cannot keep up with the demand during intensive stimulation, leading to a temporary decrease in synaptic transmission efficiency.
