Answers

Answered by GPT-4o mini
False. A sodium channel that is opened by acetylcholine is classified as a ligand-gated ion channel, not a voltage-gated channel. Voltage-gated channels open in response to changes in membrane potential, whereas ligand-gated channels open in response to the binding of a specific molecule, such as a neurotransmitter like acetylcholine.
