Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Microelectrode recording involves inserting a small electrode directly into a single neuron to measure its electrical activity. This technique would be the most precise and accurate method to measure the neuron's reaction to a specific stimulus. Electroencephalography (A) measures the activity of many neurons in a specific area and would not be precise enough for this task. Event-related potentials (B) are also measured from multiple neurons and may not isolate the specific neuron of interest. Electromyography (D) measures muscle activity and would not be relevant for measuring the activity of a single neuron.
