THE CONFIGURATION OF AXON AND "SIMPLE" NERVE ACTION POTENTIALS

Abstract
The action potential of a single axon (frog) un-distorted by the stimulus or the recording mechanism, when allowance is made for irreducible conduction, risea linearly from its inception through about 80% of its amplitude. Differences in response latencies and in duration of potentials of contributing axons cause the record of the "simple" potential at the stimulated locus to differ in configuration from the axon potential proper.
