Acetylcholionesterase Case Study
12. True. Both Schwann cells and oligodendrocytes wrap myelin sheaths around cells. There are differences however. Schwann cells wrap the myelin sheath around just one axon in the CNS while oligodendrocytes wrap around many axons in the PNS.
13. False. Acetylcholionesterase is an enzyme that causes Ach to be inactivated stopping the action potential. If something inhibits AchE, like nerve gas, that could prolong the action potential by combining with the receptor proteins. This causes the post-synaptic cell to be stimulated prolonging the action potential and leading to spastic paralysis.
14. There are many different ion channels work together for an action potential to occur. When Na+ ion channel opens it causes the membrane potential to go
