C) EP.
D) nerve conduction test.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

EP (evoked potential) refers to the electrical response of the brain stem or cerebral cortex to specific stimuli. EEG (electroencephalogram) is a recording of the electrical activity of the brain, but it is not necessarily in response to specific stimuli. TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) and nerve conduction tests are methods of stimulating and measuring the electrical activity of nerves, but they are not specific to the brain.
