Review Sheet Exercise 3 Neurophysiology of Nerve Impulses Eliciting (Generating) a Nerve Impulse 1. Why don’t the terms depolarization and action potential mean the same thing? They require different things. Action potential requires depolarization and repolarization. Depolarization doesn’t require anything. 2. What was the threshold voltage in Activity 1? 3.0V 3. What was the effect of increasing the voltage? How does this change correlate to changes in the nerve? The action potential

Neurophysiology Lab Report Activity 1: 1. What was your observed threshold voltage? The voltage at which I first observed an action potential was 3.0V 2. How does this tracing compare to the one that was generated at threshold voltage? The small increase in voltage causes a small increase in the height of the action potential peak. 3. What reasons can you give for your answer? Recruitment of the nerve’s neurons. Increasing the voltage will cause most of the neural fibers to experience

Exercise 3: Neurophysiology of Nerve Impulses Worksheet Eliciting a Nerve Impulse Activity 1: Electrical Stimulation 1. Do you see any kind of response on the oscilloscope screen? No there was no response‚ the line was flat 2. What was the threshold voltage‚ or the voltage at which you first saw an action potential? 3.0V 3. How does this tracing compare to the one that was generated at the threshold voltage? At 3.5V the high & low peaks were just slightly above and below respectively
Premium Nervous system Neuron Brain
Introduction and Objective The action potential is an impulse of electrical activity. Action potential occurs when a neuron sends messages electrochemically down an axon called a nerve impulse. When a neuron is not stimulated or inactive‚ it is at resting potential. When a neuron is at rest‚ the electrical charge on the inside of the neuron is negative while the electrical charge on the outside of the neuron is positive. The resting membrane potential of a neuron is about -70 mV (mV = millivolts)
