Question
Chapter 48.4, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: The neurotransmitter ability to produce opposite effects in different tissues.
Concept introduction:
The ligand–gated ion channel that binds and responds to a neurotransmitter is called as ionotropic receptor. Binding of the neurotransmitter to its receptor opens the channel and allows either all or only particular ions to diffuse through the membrane.
