A second action potential cannot be generated until ________.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

"Action potential is a rapid rise and subsequent fall in voltage or membrane potential across a cellular membrane with a characteristic pattern."

It is the mode through which a neuron transports electrical signals.

Explanation:

  • Option - (a) is the best choice to choose from,
  • <u>The refractory period :</u>

A second action potential cannot occur until the membrane has recovered or reestablished, this is the refractory period. The absolute refractory period coincides with inactivation of voltage-gated sodium channels which makes it impossible to generate another nerve impulse.
