Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To detect the electrical activity of a single neuron, a scientist would use a micro-electrode. This is a thin, insulated wire that is inserted into a single cell to measure its electrical activity. ESB (electric shock therapy) is used to treat various psychiatric disorders and is not related to detecting electrical activity. PET and fMRI are imaging techniques that are used to measure brain activity on a larger scale and are not specific to single neurons.
