Question

QUESTION 9 of the action potential of a given The amplitude neuron is O a larger in response to depolarizing currents of greater magnitude O b. dependent on the magnitude of the sensory stimulus O C related to the number of synapses on the neuron d smaller if the resting potential of the neuron is lower. e always the same. QUESTION 10 Which term is best described as "a nerve impulse"? Small hyperpolarizing current pulse b. the action potential Oc resting membrane potential o d. a seizure (0) e none of the above

Explanation / Answer

The amplitude of the action potential of a given neuron is smaller if the resting potential is lower. This resting potential of the neuron is dependent on the sodium- Potassium pump

that maintains the resting potential.

The term that best describes a nerve impulse is; b . Action potential that is a wave of depolarization and repolarization.
