yeh tis good when u have assessments on the questions...i had one on the eye, ear and action potentials but the eye was always easier.....for that "label this part of the eye" did u get RETINA?
they could of asked us to like label the parts of the ear (in detail) lol or something that would have annoyed me..but ti was pretty good must admit

This is my answer:

Depolarisation must reach a threshold (minimum stimulus required to generate respnse in the nerve cell) which is at least 50 mV more than the resting potential of - 70 mv. No Action potential if depolarisation is below this level. Therefore not all stimuli produce an action potential.

Is it a good answer?

Yeah I think my answer wasn't that good as well since our class never actually did a prac on neurones. She just gave me a picture of the neurones from the book

They were all really good I thought, I studied all that stuff and it was all easy, but then again the communication option was damn easy when you boil it down to its basic terms.

So yeah I'm pretty confident I did well in the communication part.

I didnt know anything about action potentials until i came out of the exam. So i didnt like that question either. But i still managed to write 4 pgs about it, didnt mention Na or K once!!!!
