Which of the following would most likely occur if an electrical stimulus were applied at point C in Figure 2?
A. An action potential would propogate toward point D.
B. An action potential would propagate toward point B.
C. No action potential would occur.
D. An action potential would propagate towards points B and D simultaneously. Correct Answer
Isn't the action potential supposed to travel in one direction from the soma to the terminal? And wouldn't it need to be initiated at the hillock in the first place for the action potential to fire?
