How does stimulus intensity and action potential frequency relate?
1. The greater the stimulus, the stronger the resulting action potentials sent to the brain.
2. The greater the stimulus, the greater the frequency of action potentials sent to the brain.
3. The greater the stimulus, the lower the frequency of action potentials sent to the brain.
4. The stimulus is ten times greater than the frequency of the resulting action potentials sent to the brain.
