Question 33 / 46:  How can you create half of an action potential?
A  Manually stimulate a neuron twice, back to back, so that each stimulation will result in half
of one action potential.
B  Inject the neuron with GABA (an inhibitory neurotransmitter) and then stimulate the neuron
so that it is only halfway activated.
C  The all-or-none law says that this is impossible.
D  Stimulate the neuron on either end so that the action potentials will meet in the center so
that only half is activated.
