Acetyl Choline and the Nicotinic Receptor

In this video, I explain how the nicotinic receptor works in synaptic transmission when it binds to AcCh. DISCLAIMER: These videos are NOT meant to replace your lecture attendance, taking lecture notes, and reading the assigned readings in your textbook. These videos are only intended to aid you in understanding the material. Since our understanding of physiology is constantly updating, please use your professor's lectures and/or your textbook as your primary sources of information since these are more likely to be up to date.
