Which statement about neuromuscular junctions in skeletal muscle is generally correct?

hard

AOne muscle fiber is normally controlled by many different motor neurons at the same time

Each skeletal muscle fiber typically has one neuromuscular junction, but a motor neuron can branch to innervate many fibers

CSkeletal muscles do not need motor neurons to contract

DNeuromuscular junctions use only electrical synapses (gap junctions)

EAcetylcholine is released from the muscle to stimulate the neuron

Explanation

Typically, each skeletal muscle fiber has a single NMJ, but one motor neuron innervates multiple fibers (forming a motor unit). The NMJ is a chemical synapse.
