Your study partner has concluded that a single action potential, once initiated, spreads down the length of an axon, non-decrementally; similarly, a single graded potential spreads down the length of a dendrite, but with decrement. Is she completely correct? Explain. How can the mechanism of decremental and non-decremental conduction help her sort this out? How is the process different in

myelinated vs. unmyelinated neurons? How may the dominoes analogy help her to understand signal propagation? What will be an ideal response?
