“Latency” refers to the A) Delay between increase in g_Na and g_K during the action potential B) Increase in refractoriness imm ediately following the action potential C) Decay in refractory period with excitation D) Prolongation of refractory period with repetitive excitation E) Delay between stimulus and action potential initiation

Question
