The "Whole Cell" Patch Clamp Technique

Multiple Choice

The "whole cell" patch clamp technique

A) allows the experimenter to easily change the solution bathing the inside surface of the cell during the recording and study the activity of single voltage-gated channel currents.
B) allows the experimenter to easily change the solution bathing the outside surface of the cell during the recording and study the activity of single voltage-gated channel currents.
C) does not allow the experimenter to change the solution on either side of the cell, but you can study the summed activity of all voltage-gated channels in the cell (macroscopic current) .
D) allows the experimenter to easily change the solution bathing the inside surface of the cell during the recording and study the summed activity of all voltage-gated channels in the cell (macroscopic current) .
E) allows the experimenter to easily change the solution bathing the outside surface of the cell during the recording and study the summed activity of all voltage-gated channels in the cell (macroscopic current) .
