Action potentials are conducted more rapidly along an axon with a Blank______ diameter.Multiple choice question.largersmaller

n axon with a smaller diameter will conduct action potentials more Blank______ than an axon with a larger diameter.Multiple choice question.quicklyslowly

Large-diameter axons conduction action potentials more quickly than small-diameter axons because the large one have Blank______.Multiple choice question.more neurotransmittersthicker myelin sheathsfewer voltage-gated sodium channelsmore surface area

The speed of action potential conduction along an axon Blank______ on the myelination of the axon.Multiple choice question.dependsdoes not depend

Action potentials travel fastest on large diameter, myelinated axons.Group startsTrue or FalseTrue, unselectedFalse, unselected

Each action potential Blank______.Multiple choice question.begins in the synaptic terminal and spreads up the axon to the axon hillockspreads across the entire surface of the membrane so that the entire cell is depolarized at one timeaffects only a small area of the plasma membrane of the cell at a timebuilds upon the previous action potential to create a larger potential change
