@ram333able Pretty sure he meant the role of Ca2+ in muscle contraction

[ram333able]

they skipped the role of calcium maybe because they think the viewer should know it already either way ADDED HERE**************

Action potential travels down the axon ends in the pre synaptic motor axon termina and opens voltage gated CALCIUM CHANNELS

the increase in Ca2+ permeability of the axon terminal causes an infflux of Ca2+ into the axon terminal . the rise is Intracellular free Ca2+ causes the release of acetylcholine from synaptic vessicle into the synaptic cleft

easy general information but not so deep

thanks

Animations are great but why does every single person who narrates them has the amazing ability to put anyone to sleep.
