When signals come into the soma from the many dendrites, they are added together. When the sum of these signals reaches a critical point, a signal is fired down the axon. When it reaches the end of the axon, a chemical is released into a gap to signal the next axon to fire. What is the signal that is fired down the axon called

Respuesta :

Answer:

Action potential signal

Explanation:

The sending of an action potential which is an electrical signal that is directed down the axon is determined by the graded potential which are located in in the cell body and the dendrites and have different sizes. The graded potential are membrane potential changes that excites or inhibit the membrane. Several excitatory graded potentials are usually activated at the same time in order that the cell body is depolariazed enough to result in triggering of the action potential.
