-In Figure 7.1, if S₂indicated a stimulus from a different source, and S₁occurred coincident with S₂, what type of summation has been generated? A) temporal B) spatial C) multiplier D) suprathreshold E) subthreshold

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Spatial summation occurs when stimuli from different sources combine to produce a response. The question describes two different stimuli (from different sources) occurring together, which aligns with the definition of spatial summation. Temporal summation, on the other hand, involves stimuli from the same source occurring in rapid succession.
