When Sherrington measured the reaction time of a reflex (i. e., the delay between stimulus and response), he found that the response occurred faster after a strong stimulus than after a weak one. Can you explain this finding? Remember that all action potentials—whether produced by strong or weak stimuli—travel at the same speed along a given axon.

Stronger stimuli have the ability to trigger more neurons, decreasing the response latency.

Explanation:

Regarding the speed of response of stimuli, there is a law called "law of latency" that states that stronger stimuli have a lower response latency, that is, they have faster and longer-lasting responses, in contrast to weaker stimuli. This is because the stronger the stimulus, the greater the capacity of neurons activated, promoting a faster signal that will signal the response to the stimulus.

mali had been a state inside of the ghanaian empire. after ghana fell because of invading forces and internal disputes, mali rose to greatness under the leadership of a legendary king named sundiata, the "lion king." the songhai empire, already weakened by internal political struggles, went into decline.
