Microelectrode technique allowed to register a potential following "all-or-none"law and being able of undecremental spreading. Specify this potential:
- A. Excitatory postsynaptic potential
- B. Inhibitory postsynaptic potential
- C. Receptor potential
- D. Rest potential
- E. Action potential
Hint
Sort the potentials listed into graded local ones that fade with distance and ones regenerated along the membrane, then match the properties given.
The answer, the explanation and a note on every option are available once you log in. The account is free: topic tests, a mock exam, mistake review and statistics.
