Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Stimulation of a muscle fibre by a motor neuron occurs at neuromuscular junction (the area of contact between a nerve and muscle fibre). It is also celled motor-end plate. At neuromuscular junction a neuron activates a muscle to contract during the excitation contraction coupling of vertebrate skeletal muscles.
