Part C
At threshold, axons will _______.

    Usually be at the end of their absolute refractory period.
    Begin to hyperpolarize the membrane potential.
    Likely generate an action potential if refractory periods have elapsed.
    Always generate an action potential.
Part D
Longer stimuli will allow for _______.

    more action potentials to occur
    the relative refractory period to finish
    the absolute refractory period to finish
    more action potentials to occur, the absolute refractory period to finish and the relative refractory period to finish

A

At threshold, axons will _______.

    Usually be at the end of their absolute refractory period.
    Begin to hyperpolarize the membrane potential.
    Likely generate an action potential if refractory periods have elapsed.
    Always generate an action potential.

Generate an action potential after the absolute and relative refractory periods have elapsed.

Longer stimuli will allow for _______.

    more action potentials to occur
    the relative refractory period to finish
    the absolute refractory period to finish
    more action potentials to occur, the absolute refractory period to finish and the relative refractory period to finish

More action potentials to occur, the absolute refractory period to finish and the relative refractory period to finish.
