The All-Or-None Law of Neural Conduction Suggests That ___________

question 112

Multiple Choice

The all-or-none law of neural conduction suggests that ___________.

• A)all neurons have action potential thresholds but none of them are the same threshold
• B)if the action potential threshold is just met, a weak action potential will occur whereas if the action potential threshold is exceeded, a more intense action potential will occur
• C)once the action potential threshold is met, an action potential of uniform and maximum intensity occurs
• D)once an action potential has occurred, the neuron will either take all or none of the refractory period time before firing another action potential

Definitions:

Square Root

The square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the original number.

P < 0.05

A statistical threshold indicating that the observed results are significant with a probability of less than 5% being due to chance.

Obtained Value

The actual value measured or computed from a data set or experiment, often compared against a theoretic or critical value in hypothesis testing.

Population Standard Deviation

The population standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion or spread of a set of values within a population, quantifying how much the values differ from the population mean.
