Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nicotinic receptors are ionotropic, meaning that they directly control ion channels and produce rapid responses in the cell. This is in contrast to metabotropic receptors, which indirectly activate signaling pathways and produce slower responses. Nicotinic receptors are also referred to as "fast" because they produce rapid responses. They can be found both postsynaptically and presynaptically, but this is not relevant to the question.
