Eliciting (Generating) a Nerve Impulse 1. Why don’t the terms depolarization and action potential mean the same thing? Depolarization has to do with surfaces becoming more negative or positive and reaches a certain point called a threshold. When the threshold is reached‚ an action potential is initiated. 2. What was the threshold voltage in Activity 1? The threshold voltage in Activity 1 was 3.0. 3. What was the effect of increasing the voltage? How does this change correlate to changes

the amount of humans on the planet. That number of rats would eat about 210 tonnes of food every day and contaminate with feces‚ urine and hair very much more than that. Rat numbers may be increasing because of recent less severe winters‚ more of us providing food for wild birds‚ and inadvertently for rats‚ in our gardens and parks‚ fewer Local Authorities offering services of free rodent control‚ and the spread of rodenticide resistance. The rat is one of the great enemies of farming‚ food production

Attentional deficits in Shank-3 deficient rat model Attention deficits are often associated with both PMS and ASD. Thus‚ we assessed performance in the attentionally demanding 5-choice serial reaction time (5-CSRT) task in which rats must respond quickly to briefly presented light cues (Fig. 1A). Both the Shank3 Het and KO rats learned the task and were able to reach baseline‚ similar to WT controls (criteria were accuracy rates higher than 80% for two consecutive days with omission rates lower than
