Assume That a Single IPSP Has a Negative Magnitude of -

Multiple Choice

Assume that a single IPSP has a negative magnitude of - 0.5 mV at the axon hillock, and that a single EPSP has a positive magnitude of + 0.5 mV. For a neuron with initial membrane potential is -70 mV, the net effect of the simultaneous arrival of 6 IPSPs and 2 EPSPs would be to move the membrane potential to

A) -72 mV.
B) -71 mV.
C) -70 mV.
D) -69 mV.
E) -68 mV.
