If a Single EPSP Depolarizes the Initial Segment from a Resting

Question 127

Multiple Choice

If a single EPSP depolarizes the initial segment from a resting membrane potential of -70 mV to -65 mV,and threshold is at -60 mV,will an action potential be generated? Explain your answer.


A) Yes,because depolarization reached threshold.
B) No,because depolarization did not reach threshold.
C) Yes,because depolarization did not reach threshold.
D) No,because depolarization reached threshold.
E) Yes,because all stimuli to a resting membrane will cause an action potential.
