Standard Text: Select all that apply.
1. Large-diameter nerve fibers carry pain stimuli through a gate.
2. Peripheral nerve fibers carrying pain to the spinal cord can have their message modified at the spinal cord before transmission to the brain.

5. To inhibit the pain message, another message must be sent on the nerve pathway for the brain to interpret.
