Question 1

Conduction occurs along an axon because
◦ entry of Na+ stimulates the adjacent channels to open.
◦ axonal transport "walks" voltage changes along the membrane.
◦ once Na+ enters the cell, the entire membrane depolarizes simultaneously.
◦ exit of K+ stimulates the adjacent channels to open.

Question 2

Conduction speed can be increased by
◦ removing myelin.
◦ increasing the length of a neuron.
◦ increasing the diameter of a neuron.
◦ All of the above.
