This “design” is “more intelligent” than that of mammals (humans)
because it lacks the blind spot and maximizes light exposure to receptors

1. Action potential
ACh
arrives; acetylcholine
(Ach) is released.
ACh receptor
Action
potentials
2. ACh binds to ACh
receptors on the muscle
cell, triggering depolarization that leads to
action potential.
3. Action potentials
propagate across muscle
cell’s plasma membrane
and into interior of cell via
T tubules.
4. Proteins in T tubules
open Ca2+ channels in
sarcoplasmic reticulum.
5. Ca2+ is released
from sarcoplasmic
reticulum. Sarcomeres
contract when troponin
and tropomyosin move in
response to Ca2+ and
expose actin binding
sites in the thin filaments
(see Figure 46.23).
