Difference between Muscle contraction and Synaptic vesicle

Muscle contraction vs. Synaptic vesicle

Muscle contraction is the activation of tension-generating sites within muscle fibers. In a neuron, synaptic vesicles (or neurotransmitter vesicles) store various neurotransmitters that are released at the synapse.

Similarities between Muscle contraction and Synaptic vesicle

Muscle contraction and Synaptic vesicle have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Acetylcholine, Action potential, Adenosine triphosphate, Calcium channel, Chemical synapse, Nervous system, Protein, Synapse, Voltage-gated calcium channel.

Acetylcholine

Acetylcholine (ACh) is an organic chemical that functions in the brain and body of many types of animals, including humans, as a neurotransmitter—a chemical message released by nerve cells to send signals to other cells.

Action potential

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.

Adenosine triphosphate

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a complex organic chemical that participates in many processes.

Calcium channel

A calcium channel is an ion channel which shows selective permeability to calcium ions.

Chemical synapse

Chemical synapses are biological junctions through which neurons' signals can be exchanged to each other and to non-neuronal cells such as those in muscles or glands.

Nervous system

The nervous system is the part of an animal that coordinates its actions by transmitting signals to and from different parts of its body.

Protein

Proteins are large biomolecules, or macromolecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues.

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.

Voltage-gated calcium channel

Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), also known as voltage-dependent calcium channels (VDCCs), are a group of voltage-gated ion channels found in the membrane of excitable cells (e.g., muscle, glial cells, neurons, etc.) with a permeability to the calcium ion Ca2+.

Muscle contraction and Synaptic vesicle Comparison

Muscle contraction has 143 relations, while Synaptic vesicle has 87. As they have in common 9, the Jaccard index is 3.91% = 9 / (143 + 87).
