Why should you be interested in electrical potentials in biology?
A. They are present across the membranes of all cells and are necessary for maintenance of the internal fluid composition.
B. They are the basis of nerve impulses that underlie the functioning of the brain and all our senses.
C. They are the basis of the rhythm of the heart and the contraction of heart muscle as well as the contraction of skeletal muscle
D. They are useful in clinical medicine for diagnosis.

The Digital OscilloscopeHas 2 Components
A. An analog to digital converter (samples voltage at each tick of a clock)
B. A computer to graph the values and to control the A-D converter

Stimulator
Produces voltage pulses (stimuli or shocks) whose duration, rate, and amplitude can be controlled by the experimenter
