What is the physiological reason that action potentials can only be propagated in one direction in a neuron (from cell body towards the synaptic terminal and not vice versa)
Homework Answers
when sodium channels are open then only depolaraization occurs and the action potential propagates through the axon
sodium channels are open upto 3ms in this period we cant fire another action potential.

Diagnostic clinical reasoning
Action potentials are propagated down the length of an axon via both passive and active membrane properties. The rate at which the action potential travels is variable and depends on axon diameter and myelin. DIAGNOSTIC CLINICAL REASONING 5.2 G.B., Part Il Because of the damage to his myelin, he has sensory and motor impairments in his limbs. G.B.5: Light touch sensation is impaired throughout GB's and face. What types of neurons transmit sensory information from the periphery...

The reason why action potentials are described as "all or none" is: a. because neurotransmitter is released from all axon terminals or none of them. b. an action potential arriving at an axon terminal either causes all the neurotransmitters to be released or none to be released. c. either all ion channels in the axon membrane open or none open. d. if an action potential is generated in a neuron, the amplitude does not depend on the stimulus strength. e....

2. Long-term Potentiation is a process that strengthens the transmission of a single synapse in a circuit. This is achieved when pre-synaptic cells and post-synaptic cells fire action potentials at the same time. Usually multiple pre-synaptic cells synapse onto one post-synaptic cell, increasing the probability of inducing an action potential in the post- synaptic cell. You may need to refer to your textbooks or online resources for this question, as we do not cover this in explicit detail in class....

5. Draw a graph showing what would happen to resting membrane potential over time, if the sodium/potassium pump were not functioning. How would this affect a neuron's ability to produce action potentials? What does this imply about the quantity of ions that normally cross the membrane during the course of an action potential?

During the propagation of an action potential, what would be the effect of a mutation in the voltage-gated Na+-channels that does not allow “inactivation” phase to occur, such that these channels go directly from open to closed conformations? a) The neuron with the mutant Na+ channels will start letting in calcium ions and generate a calcium-based action potential that is stronger than the sodium-based action potential. b) The neuron with the mutant Na+ channel will exhibit a reverse electrochemical gradient...

What is typically the role of an inhibitory synapse? to open Na+ channels in the post-synaptic membrane to depolarize the post-synaptic membrane to generate an EPSP to hyperpolarize the post-synaptic membrane If a post-synaptic nerve cell receives a large number of EPSPs from synapses on different dendrites, what is the most likely result? A hyperpolarization Mechanical summation Spatial summation An IPSP Why might natural selection have favored cephalization? It allows animals to better detect stimuli behind them, if they are...

The magnitude of the action potential stays the same as it travels down the axon. C. Voltage-gated Na+ channels open only when the threshold potential is reached. OD. Each segment of the axon prevents the adjacent segments from firing, E. The refractory period allows the impulse to travel in only one direction OF. None of these...

Csondier the steps at synaptic trasmission (communication from one neuron to another across the synapse. describe two different ways that drugs can act at various points in the process of synaptic transmission. For each drug, describe 10) at what point in the process of synaptic transmission it acts, and what its effect is, 2 what effect this has on the amount of neurotransmitter available in the synapse, and 3) what effect this has on the post-synaptic cell.
