The "All or None" response means that:
A stimulus causes depolarization and repolarization regardless of the strength of
the stimulus
There is no threshold for an electrical stimulus signal to reach before
depolarization and repolarization
O Potassium channels open for depolarization and sodium channels open for
repolarization
A stimulus has to be strong enough for depolarization to occur followed by
repolarization
If the response to a stimulus is a change from a negative potential to a less negative potential, the change is called:
stimulus response
Repolarization
Depolarization
Stimulus recovery
The receptor cells of the peripheral parts of the analyzers can be classified: by the nature of contact
with the external environment (distant and contact); depending on the nature of the adequate stimulus,
the receptors can be divided into mechano-, chemo-, and photoreceptors.

- Four research teams measured the speed at which signals travel down a certain type of nerve fiber, and what each team wrote in its team notebook is shown in the table below. Suppose a later and more reliable measurement gives 111 m/s for the signal speed in the same type of nerve fiber.

The trajectory of the trained animal’s hand from the start point in the centre to each of the eight peripheral targets was tracked and is plotted in Panel A of Figure 2 below. Once the animal was trained in this task, a uniform force field was then applied to the manipulandum arm that the monkey had to move to reach the targets. The animal was trained under this new force field regimen for a further 500 trials. During one of the last trials, the force field was unexpectedly not applied. The movements in this ‘unexpected’ condition are shown in Panel D. ‘Trial’ refers to a complete set of eight movements, one to each of the targets. • Use Panels B and C to illustrate: (i) the direction of the uniform force field that must have been used in the experiment; and (ii) the trajectories of the hand that you would expect on the first of the trials carried out under the force field…arrow_forward

- Use the following information to answer the next question: In a classic experiment, the strength of a neural stimulus and the resulting muscle contraction are compared. A single motor neuron that sends a message to a muscle fibre is suspended. One end is attached to the muscle fibre, and the free end of the muscle fibre is attached to a mass. If an electrical stimulus is sufficient to cause an impulse in the neuron, the muscle will contract and lift the mass. The following data were obtained from the experiment. Strength of Stimulus (mV) Mass Lifted by Muscle (g) 1 2 10 3 10 4 Analyze the data and answer the following questions: 1. a.
