1
What was the conduction velocity of the CAP at 22 C?
A)About 40 m/s.
B)Between 25 and 35 m/s.
C)Between 15 and 20 m/s.
D)About 10 m/s.
2
What was the conduction velocity of the CAP at 10 C?
A)About 40 m/s.
B)Between 25 and 35 m/s.
C)Between 15 and 20 m/s.
D)About 10 m/s.
3
What was the effect of cooling on the duration (width) of the CAP?
A)Cooling increased the duration of the CAP.
B)Cooling did not change the duration of the CAP.
C)Cooling decreased the duration of the CAP.
4
What was the effect of cooling on the time delay between the shock and the CAP?
A)Cooling decreased the time delay.
B)Cooling did not change the time delay.
C)Cooling increased the time delay.
5
What was the effect of cooling on the conduction velocity of the CAP?
A)Cooling decreased conduction velocity.
B)Cooling did not change the conduction velocity.
C)Cooling increased conduction velocity.
6
What is the effect of cooling on the rate of enzymic action?
A)Cooling decreases the rate of enzymic action.
B)Cooling does not change the rate of enzymic action.
C)Cooling increases the rate of enzymic action.
7
Ion channels and enzymes are both proteins. If cooling decreases the rate of enzymic activity, what does cooling do to the rate that channels open and close?
A)Cooling increases the rate that channels open and close.
B)Cooling does not change the rate that channels open and close.
C)Cooling decreases the rate that channels open and close.
8
If channel opening and closing are temperature sensitive, what do you think happens to the rate of membrane potential change when the nerve is cold?
A)The channels open and close slower in the cold, so the resultant membrane potential change takes place slower.
B)The channels open and close slower in the cold, so the resultant membrane potential change takes place faster.
C)The channels open and close slower in the cold, but this should not affect the rate of membrane potential change.
9
If cooling slows channel function and membrane potential changes, what will be the effect of cooling on the time course (duration) of the action potential?
A)The time course of the action potential will be decreased.
B)The time course of the action potential will be increased.
C)The time course of the action potential will not be changed.
10
If cooling increases the time taken for the membrane to come to threshold and produce a spike, what will be the effect of cooling on the time taken for the action potential transmission from node to node in a myelinated axon?
A)Cooling increases the time for spikes to travel between nodes, so conduction velocity will be slower.
B)Cooling increases the time for spikes to travel between nodes, so conduction velocity will be faster.
C)Cooling increases the time for spikes to travel between nodes, but this will not affect the conduction velocity of the action potential down the axon.
