#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal

At the neuromuscular junction, the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) is degraded by acetylcholinesterase. If a neurophysiologist applies the naturally occurring acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, onchidal (produced by the mollusc Onchidella binneyi), to a synapse, what would you expect to happen?
