Your study partner has concluded that a single action potential, once initiated, spreads down the length of an axon, without decreasing in strength; similarly, a single graded potential spreads down the length of a dendrite, but decreases with distance. Is she completely correct? Explain. How can the mechanism of decremental and non-decremental conduction help her sort this out? How is the process different in myelinated vs. unmyelinated neurons? How may the dominoes analogy help her to understand signal propagation?
