When are cable properties (decremental conduction) NOT in effect? during the EPSP during the IPSP none of these are correct in the nodes of Ranvier in the myelinated segments of the axon Question 5 If a neurotransmitter causes the opening of a chloride channel, what will happen? none of these are correct an action potential will be triggered the neuron will go from rest toward the critical firing level hyperpolarization depolarization

Q4.3. Which ion channel is responsible for the rising phase of the action potential, and why? Na+ channels, because positive Na+ ions are at higher concentration outside the axon than inside, and so they enter the axon and raise Vm Na+ channels, because positive Na+ ions are at higher concentration inside the axon than outside, and so they leave the axon and raise Vm K+ channels, because positive K+ ions are at higher concentration outside the axon than inside, and so they enter the axon and raise Vm K+ channels, because positive K+ ions are at higher concentration inside the axon than outside, and so they leave the axon and lower Vm

An influx of Na+ ions occurs at the axon terminal. Voltage-gated Ca2+ channels open, resulting in an influx of Ca2+. Synaptic vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane. Neurotransmitters arrive at the dendrites of the postsynaptic neuron. Neurotransmitters alter the permeability of the postsynaptic membrane to ions. In what order do the events above occur in Neuron Synapse?

A neuron has reached a threshold potential when it has depolarized to the point where a. the voltage-gated $\mathrm{Na}^{+}$ channels have become inactivated. b. sufficient numbers of voltage-gated Na $^{+}$ channels open to initiate a positive feedback cycle, contributing to further depolarization. c. voltage-gated $\mathrm{K}^{+}$ channels close. d. voltage-gated $\mathrm{Na}^{+}$ channels close. e. both $b$ and $c$ occur.
