True false questions
Neuron cell bodies are only found in CNS but not in PNS, while axons are the opposite. True False
If the threshold for AP is set at -60mV, a neuron receives total 8 EPSPs of -65mV and 6 IPSPs of -75mV, after the summation, this neuron will launch an AP. True False
Sodium-potassium exchange pump is the key factor in maintaining the concentration gradients of the cations across the plasma membrane. True False
The resting potential, -70mV, being close to K+ equilibrium potential, -90mV, is because neuron is much leakier to K+ than to Na+. True False
Axon hillock is where the threshold potential is set to launch an action potential. True False
K+ leak channel is responsible for both hyperpolarization and repolarization in the action potential. True False
