Fiona puts her hands into a sinkful of lukewarm water; Luke puts his hands into a sinkful of ice-cold water. What should we predict about their action potentials?
|
a) Fiona's will be weaker because the stimulus is less intense. |
|
|
b) Their action potentials will be the same due to the all-or-none principle. |
|
|
c) Luke's will travel a shorter distance because the stimulus is more intense. |
|
|
d) Luke's will travel faster because the stimulus is more intense. |
D) Luke's will travel faster because the stimulus is more intense.
