Closing K+ channels
|
depolarization
|
|
Closing Na+ channels
|
hyperpolarization
|
|
Increasing extracellular Na+ levels
|
depolarization
|
|
Increasing extracellular K+ levels
|
Hyperpolarization
|
|
A dendrite with which combination of properties would have the longest length constant?
|
Large diameter, few open channels
|
|
A dendrite with which combination of properties would have the shortest length constant?
|
small diameter, many open channels
|
|
A larger diameter makes it easier or harder for current to travel down the dendrite?
|
easier
|
|
many open channels or few open channels make it harder for current to leave?
|
few
|
|
Decreasing the extracellular Na+ concentration will do what?
|
Lowered Vna+, lowered peak of the action potential
|
|
Applying a drug that prevents the opening of voltage gated K+ channels
|
prolonged action potential, lack of an afterhyperpolarization
|
|
Applying a drug that slows the inactivation of voltage gated Na+ channels
|
Prolonged action potential, but an afterhyperpolarization is still present, indicating the opening of K+ channels
|
|
which of the following axon would have the fastest conduction velocity
a) .5 um diameter, myelinated b) .5 um diameter, unmyelinated c) 1.5 um diameter, myelinated d) 1.5 um diamter, unmyelinated |
C) 1.5 - both larger diameter and the presence of myelin increase conduction velosity.
