What is the electrode measuring? It is a concept that deals with voltages. Why use leeches in neurophysiology experiments? They are relatively small in number and have a large size of neurons.
What is the difference between a sensory and a motor neuron? A sensory neuron is a nerve cell that transmits nerve impulses to the cns after a sensory receptor has been stimulated. A motor neuron conducts impulses away from the cns and innervates effectors.
Do you think a leech experiences pain? What is pain? No they do not feel pain because they do not have the necessary brain systems that vertebrates have in order to process pain.
What were the two most interesting things about doing this lab? Just learning about neurophysiology in all because i had never learned anything about them before.
Anything you found confusing or didnt like about the lab? Just trying to figure out the lab at first was a little confusing.
