How do nerve agents work on a biological level?

I was reading about the [Novichok agent](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/kbyxet/a_little_wordplay/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) and I’d like to know more about how it works along with other nerve agents without the complicated science jargon.

The term nerve agent is actually kinda broad. To be a nerve agent the chemical has to modify the normal function of your nerves in a way to be lethal. Some stop nerves from signaling others make them fire non stop. Others make it so they can’t receive signals.
