    in electrical potential associated with the passage of an impulse along the membrane of a muscle cell or nerve cell. An action potential occurs when a neuron sends information down an axon‚ away from the cell body. A threshold is the minimum amount of stimulation needed to start a neural impulse (you know‚ the electrical impulses that travel throughout your body carrying important information). Action potentials generated by neural impulses are "all or nothing‚" meaning the signal reaches the

    changes that occur rapidly may not be fullyunderstood until years later‚ if at all. The same can be said of the Battle of Midway.

    Richard Ray explains the two causes of these rapid changes by saying‚ “As the tides move water around the globe‚ the moment of inertia of the earth changes. By conservation of angular momentum‚ the solid earth changes its rotation rate accordingly. (2) As the tidal currents slow down or speed up‚ they exchange angular momentum with the solid earth‚ which is manifested in the rotation rate.” (Ray). Tides slow Earth’s rotation through slow‚ steady friction and by rapid changes caused by inertia and angular
