Describe the neuromuscular junction.

The neuromuscular junction is the structure in the form of a junction between a muscle and a nerve, and allows the transmission of nerve impulses, i.e. the order coming from the brain from the end of the axon, or more precisely from the extension of the neuron: the nerve cell.

The neuromuscular junction is the connection between the nerve terminal and muscle. It is the point where the action potential from the nervous system is transmitted into the action potential of the muscle cell membrane.

The main parts are the nerve terminal, the synaptic cleft, and the postsynaptic membrane.
