Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ionotropic effects refer to rapid changes in ion flow through ion channels, resulting in rapid changes in cellular activity. Rapid muscle contraction is most likely to be dependent on ionotropic effects, as it requires the rapid influx of calcium ions to trigger muscle contraction. Gradual sleepiness and hunger are more likely to be modulated by slower, metabotropic effects, while hormone release can be a combination of both ionotropic and metabotropic effects.
