hand written answer please
rare is a potent neurotoxin extracted from the Stoychnos toxifera plant in Central and South America. Indigenous peoples of South America apply curare to arrows, which they used to hunt and kill animals. Curare acts at synapses between motor neurons and skeletal muscle cells. When a motor neuron synapses with a skeletal muscle cell, the skeletal muscle cell may be stimulated or inhibited just like postsynaptic neurons are. Curare acts by binding temporarily to acetylcholine receptors on the postsynaptic cell and prevents acetylcholine from binding. Describe the effect curare likely has on the postsynaptic cell, Describe an effective treatment for curare poisoningExplanation / Answer
Main work of curate is blockage of end plate potential but it can not blocked the voltage dependent Na+ conductance or voltage dependent K+ conductance when are recorded in muscle action potential .it May affect exitatory postsynpatic potential which are responsible for starting the muscle action potential.
It is treat by artificial respiration and it is treat by pyridostigmine.
