    1. The document is a worksheet asking students to fill in blanks in a diagram of an action potential in a neuron. It includes a word bank to choose from. 2. Short responses are also asked - explaining why an action potential has an all-or-none response and constant magnitude, describing the absolute and relative refractory periods, and how anesthetics prevent impulse transmission. 3. The worksheet tests students' understanding of the key stages and properties of an action potential in a neuron, including resting potential, threshold, depolarization, repolarization, and refractory periods.

    16. If the threshold potential is met action potential will always occur. Action potential
    always reaches the same magnitude of +30 mV. Explain why this is referred to as the
    all-or-none response and why the magnitude of response is always the same.
