A) Soft wind bends the hair, Na+ channels open leading to depolarization, low concentration of neurotransmitter released and low frequency of action potentials in afferent neuron to the brain.
B) Strong wind bends the hair, K+ channels open leading to depolarization, high concentration of neurotransmitter released and high frequency of action potentials within the afferent neuron to the brain.
C) Strong wind bends the hair, Na+ channels open leading to hyperpolarization, high concentration of neurotransmitter released and high frequency of action potentials in afferent neuron to the brain.
