How do you think your temperature sensory neurons code this very noticeable and strong stimulus? a) They produce larger EPSPS at the same rate as under the warm water condition. b) They produce larger, but the same number of, action potentials as under the warm water condition. c) They produce smaller EPSPS at a higher rate than under the warm water condition. d) They produce the same number and size action potentials that travel faster down the neurons than under the warm water condition. e) They produce more action potentials of the same size as under the warm water conditionarrow_forwardWhat is the difference between the absolute refractory period versus the relative refractory period?arrow_forwardTwo major material baroreceptors are located where?arrow_forward

- Does the action potential in a single axon increase in amplitude when the stimulus amplitude is increased? Does the amplitude of the CAP increase because more fibers are firing, or the amplitude of the action potentials from single fibers are increasing, or a combination of both?arrow_forwardWhy is hyperpolarization important?arrow_forwardYou want to record membrane potential changes in axons of neurons that process different types somatosensory information. Which sequence ranks the speed of maximum firing rate from slowest to fastest that you predict you will record a) muscle spindle < cutaneous mechanoreceptor < pain and temperature b) pain and temperature < muscle spindle < cutaneous mechanoreceptor c) cutaneous mechanoreceptor < pain and temperature < muscle spindle d) cutaneous mechanoreceptor < muscle spindle < pain and temperature e) muscle spindle < pain and temperature < cutaneous mechanoreceptor f) pain and temperature < cutaneous mechanoreceptor < muscle spindlearrow_forward
- During the refractory period a) if a neuron reaches threshold the action potential goes to completion b) No stimulus of any strength will trigger a new action potential c) It is possible to trigger a new action potential but only with an unusually strong stimulus d) The signal grows weaker with distance e) The neuron fires at its maximum voltage if a stimulus depolarizes the neuron to thresholdarrow_forwardWhat is the action of the neurotransmitter that is released from photoreceptor cells on bipolar cells?arrow_forwardApplying a pressure stimulus to the fluid-filled capsule of an isolated Pacinian corpuscle causes a brief burst of action potentials in the afferent neuron, which ceases until the pressure is removed, at which time another brief burst of action potentials occurs. If an experimenter removes the capsule and applies pressure directly to the afferent neuron ending, action potentials are continuously fired during the stimulus. Explain these results in the context ofadaptation.arrow_forward
