MATCHING
Match each description with the term that correctly identifies the generation and conduction of the nerve impulse stage. Terms may be used more than once.
-During this stage,the electrical charge on the outside of the membrane is positive,while the electrical charge on the inside of the membrane is negative.
A)Polarization
B)Slow depolarization
C)Rapid depolarization
D)Repolarization
E)Relative refractory period
F)Absolute refractory period

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This description matches with the term polarization, which occurs at the beginning of the nerve impulse generation and conduction stage.

Answer: C 
 This description matches with the term rapid depolarization, which occurs when the threshold is reached and the membrane potential rapidly becomes positive.

Answer: D 
 This description matches with the term repolarization, which occurs after rapid depolarization when the membrane potential returns to its resting state.

Answer: E 
 This description matches with the term relative refractory period, which occurs after repolarization when a greater-than-normal stimulus is required to generate another nerve impulse.

Answer: F 
 This description matches with the term absolute refractory period, which occurs right after rapid depolarization and during repolarization when the neuron is unresponsive to any stimulus.
