Corresponds to the period of repolarization of the neuron?
Action Potential
The stage in an action potential that immediately follows depolarization is?
repolarization
The action potential is generated when a stimulus?
When a stimulus stimulates a neuron above the threshold, the action potential is generated.
During an action potential repolarization occurs as a result of?
potassium ions diffusion to the outside of the cell membrain,
What is the stage in an action potential that immediately follow depolarisation?
After depolarization repolarization occur whcih then again lead to resting potentiol

What is the absolute refractory period?
Absolute Refractory Period:It is the interval during which a second action potential absolutely cannot be initiated, no matter how large a stimulus is applied.ORAfter repolarization there is a period during which a second action potential cannot be initiated, no matter how large a stimulus current is applied to the neuron. This is called the absolute refractory period, and it is followed by a relative refractory period, during which another action potential can be generated
Potassium channels open late in the action potential to cause membrane?
...repolarization
What is the name of the 1rst phase of the action potential that is caused by the inward movement of sodium?
repolarization
What potential does amplitude independent of stimulus strength describes?
action potential
What are the events that must occur to generate action potential?
Local polarization is the first step. Next the generation and propagation of an action potential. Lastly repolarization has to take place.
During an action potential repolarization occurs as a result of?
potassium ions diffusion to the outside of the cell membrain,
2 Define refractory period and differentiate between absolute and relative refractory periods?
refractory period is the interval between action potential , the absolute refractory period is the period in which second action potential can not be initiated but in relative refractory period the second action potential can be initiated by the more strong stimulus.
How did increasing the stimulus voltage in the simulation affect the action potential?
Increasing the stimulus voltage in the simulation affect action potential mainly because increasing the current will automatically increase the voltage.
What is the stage in an action potential that immediately follow depolarisation?
After depolarization repolarization occur whcih then again lead to resting potentiol
