Q:
Tetrodotoxin is a toxin that blocks the sodium channels from opening. What effect would this have on
the function of neurons?A) Neurons would depolarize more rapidly.
B) Action potentials would lack a repolarization phase.
C) The refractory period would be shorter than normal.
D) The neurons would not be able to propagate action potentials.
E) none of the above

A) Herbivores
B) Carnivores
C) Omnivores
D) Producers
Q:
The following are the main steps in the generation of an action potential.1. Sodium channels are
inactivated.
2. Potassium channels open and potassium moves out of the cell, initiating repolarization.
3. Sodium channels regain their normal properties.
4. A graded depolarization brings an area of an excitable membrane to threshold.
5. A temporary hyperpolarization occurs.
6. Sodium channel activation occurs.
7. Sodium ions enter the cell and depolarization occurs.
The proper sequence of these events is
A) \( 4,6,7,3,2,5,1 \)
B) \( 4,6,7,1,2,3,5 \)
C) \( 5,7,4,1,2,3,5 \)
D) \( 2,4,6,7,1,3,5 \)
E) \( 4,2,5,6,7,3,1 \)
