A male was suffering from urethritis with purulent discharge. Based on your studied slides, write a plan for diagnosis of etiological agent. You will have to mention only 3 possible etiological agents. Include in your description: Specimen type, Gram stain result of specimen, culture type, one biochemical test, other methods for detection of etiological agent?

the answer that best describes the relative refractory period in the neuron is the resting membrane potential is restored, but concentrations of sodium and potassium are not restored to their original state.

the refractory period is the time during which another stimulus given to the neuron will not lead to a second potential. thus, because na+ channels are inactivated during this time, additional depolarizing stimuli do not lead to new action potentials.
