What is the sequence of events that follow a threshold potential?

Following a threshold potential, voltage-gated sodium channels open, allowing sodium ions to rush into the cell, depolarizing the membrane. This triggers an action potential that spreads down the length of the neuron. Once the action potential reaches the end of the neuron, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft to communicate with the next neuron.


How are local and action potentials similar?

Local and action potentials both involve changes in membrane potential due to the movement of ions across the cell membrane. They both follow the same basic principles of depolarization and repolarization. However, action potentials occur in excitable cells like neurons and muscle cells, while local potentials are smaller, graded changes in membrane potential that occur in non-excitable cells.


How does a nerve impulse follow the all or nothing principle?

The action action potential produced needs to reach the threshold for the AP to be propagated. If it doesn't reach the threshold, there is not enough Na+ to stimulate the positive feedback system which allows the action potential to be self-propagated. Instead, K+ channels will be opened, and it will enter repolarisation phase, and the AP wll not be conducted.

What is the difference between a compound action potential and a single action potential?

Single action potentials follow the "all or none" rule. That is, if a stimulus is strong enough to depolarize the membrane of the neuron to threshold (~55mV), then an action potential will be fired. Each stimulus that reaches threshold will produce an action potential that is equal in magnitude to every other action potential for the neuron. Compound action potentials do not exhibit this property since they are a bundle of neurons and have different magnitudes of AP's. Thus compound action potentials are graded. That is, the greater the stimulus, the greater the action potential.


Do action potentials always have the same amplitude and the same duration?

Yes, this is due to the all or nothing law that neurons follow: "an excitable membrane either responds to a stimulus with a maximal action potential that spreads nondecrementally throughout the membrane, or it does not respond with an action potential at all." "

Is the word follow a action verb?

I believe the word "follow" is an action verb because in order to follow someone, you need to put your body in motion and it is therefore an action.

Yes the smaller earthquakes that immediately follow major earthquakes are known as aftershocks.


How action potential is propagated?

A.P. propagation consists of the movement of the action potential along the axon, axon terminals and dendrites. A.P. propagation is non-decremental meaning that the amplitude of the A.P. remains constant throughout the propagation. Action potentials are also follow the principle of all-or-none fashion. Meaning if there is not enough summation(adding of EPSPs and mEPPs) to bring the stimulus to threshold, then no AP will be elicited
