True or False if False why?
A new type of neurotoxin is discovered that acts specifically at
the synapses of motor neurons. This neurotoxin binds to muscarinic
receptors of the heart, where it displaces acetylcholine,
preventing the vagus nerve from slowing the heart. As a result,
heart rates speed up uncontrollably and the animal dies from
cardiac arrest.
