A) Stretch,stretch-gated Na⁺ channels open,receptor potential,voltage-gated Na⁺ channels open,action potential B) Stretch,dendritic potential,stretch-gated Na⁺ channels open,receptor potential,action potential C) Stretch,receptor potential,spread of potential in receptor neuron,neurotransmitter release,action potential D) Stretch,neurotransmitter release,receptor potential,stretch-gated Na⁺ channels open,action potential E) Stretch,neurotransmitter release,stretch-gated Na⁺ channels open,voltage-gated Na⁺ channels open,action potential

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct sequence involves the initial stretch causing stretch-gated Na⁺ channels to open, leading to a receptor potential. This receptor potential then causes voltage-gated Na⁺ channels to open, resulting in an action potential.
