Use this information to answer the following set of questions: Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a severe muscular disorder in which muscles that control the eyelids, facial expressions, swallowing or breathing may be weakened. When breathing muscles are weakened, MG can be fatal. The disease is classified as autoimmune because the person\'s own antibodies (proteins involved in the immune response to foreign organisms) bind to the body\'s own acetylcholine receptors, thus blocking the binding of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Researchers have observed that women are most likely to develop MG between ages 20-40 whereas men are more likely to develop the disease between 50-70. The binding of the antibodies to acetylcholine receptors will immediately inhibit post-synaptic potentials pre-synaptic potentials release of acetylcholine activity of the Na+/K+ pump diffusion of Na+ through Na+ gates

Solution

Question 5:

The answer is: post - synaptic potentials

In myasthenia gravis, the binding of antibodies to acetylcholin receptors will immediately inhibit post synaptic potential.
