Difference between Action potential and Muscular system

Action potential vs. Muscular system

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise. The muscular system is an organ system consisting of skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscles.

Similarities between Action potential and Muscular system

Action potential and Muscular system have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Calcium, Cerebellum, Motor neuron, Myocyte, Neuromuscular junction, Neurotransmitter, Sinoatrial node, Synapse, Tetanus, Vertebrate.

Motor neuron

A motor neuron (or motoneuron) is a neuron whose cell body is located in the motor cortex, brainstem or the spinal cord, and whose axon (fiber) projects to the spinal cord or outside of the spinal cord to directly or indirectly control effector organs, mainly muscles and glands.

Synapse

In the nervous system, a synapse is a structure that permits a neuron (or nerve cell) to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another neuron or to the target efferent cell.
