Question 21 (1 point)

A neuron has initiated one action potential. Before it can generate a second impulse:

SELECT ANY ACCURATE ANSWERS

Question 21 options:

Na ions must be pumped out of a cell, thereby reestablishing membrane potential

All proteins involved in action potentials must be resynthesized (newly synthesized)

Voltage gated Na channels must open to reestablish the membrane potential

The membrane potential must be +30mV before the cell is ready to generate a new action potential

Question 24 (1 point)

One of the following ion channels are perhaps the most important in generating and conducting an action potential.


This type of channel can open and close based on membrane potential. At rest the channel is closed and it opens at threshold.

Based on the information above, the channel is probably a(n):

Explanation / Answer

20. Biceps femoris (explanation - The group of muscles forming hamstring are located at the back of the thigh. It is formed of 3 individual muscles. They are biceps femoris, semitendinosus and rectus femoris.)

23. absolute refractory period (explanation - The absolute refractory period is the time a cell takes to get ready for a second stimulus after it returned to its resting state following an excitation.)

24. voltage gated channel (explanation - Changes in the electrical membrane potential near the channel activate this kind of channels.)
