Immediately following the arrival of the stimulus at the axon terminal there is a short period called the latent period.

Explanation:

When a stimulus reaches the terminal of an axon, a period known as the latent period begins. This period has a short duration and during it it is possible to observe the blockage of new stimuli in the nerve fiber. Thus, the new stimuli fail to trigger an impulse and no muscle tension to be observed.

While the latent period is not finished, the neurotransmitter is released through the action of exocytosis that moves until it gets access to the receptor capable of activating the muscle cell.

as resources become scarce because of population growth, the growth decreases after few years due to lack of resources and food.
