(PLEASE HELP!!!!)

When an action potential reaches a neuromuscular junction, which of the following will happen first?

Acetylcholine binds to acetylcholinesterase and depolarizes the cell.
Sodium ion gates and potassium ion gates open at the same time.
Acetylcholine enters into the synapse to bond with receptor proteins.
Synaptic vesicles receive a signal to release acetylcholine into the junction.

Disclaimer: I am NOT one hundred percent sure, as I am doing the test right now. When I finish, I'll come back and confirm.

Update: I have finished the test, and this is the correct answer!
