The need to have AChE to terminate the actions of ACh at the NMJ is due to
Simple diffusion is too fast and would not allow us to control muscle and there are no glial cells at the NMJ for use of uptake mechanisms
Simple diffusion is constrained by the trough design of the NMJ and there are no glial cells at the NMJ for use of uptake mechanisms
Simple diffusion would also cause diffusion of the AChE and glial cells at the NMJ are of the wrong type for re-uptake mechanisms
Simple diffusion would also cause diffusion of the AChE and there are no glial cells at the NMJ for the use of re-uptake mechanisms
Simple diffusion is constrained by the trough design of the NMJ and glial cells at the NMJ do not produce enough AChE
