| 1. | A part of this is called the absolute refractory period.
|
| 2. | During the absolute refractory period, a new action potential cannot be elicited.
|
| 3. | An absolute refractory period was reached when intervals were about 10 ms apart.
|
| 4. | This inability to induce another action potential is known as the absolute refractory period.
|
| 5. | Class Ia slows phase 0 depolarization in the ventricles and increases the absolute refractory period.
|
| 6. | The absolute refractory period is largely responsible for the unidirectional propagation of action potentials along axons.
|
| 7. | Absolute refractory period corresponds to depolarization and repolarization, whereas relative refractory period corresponds to hyperpolarization.
|
| 8. | Repolarization of the membrane potential continues, resulting in an undershoot phase or absolute refractory period.
|
| 9. | Absolute refractory period corresponds to depolarisation and repolarisation, whereas relative refractory period corresponds to hyperpolarisation.
|
| 10. | The period when the majority of sodium channels remain in the inactive state is the absolute refractory period.
