An action potential does not re-stimulate the adjacent membrane that was previously depolarized because
a. stimulation is inhibited by the myelin sheath. b. it is impossible for an action potential to be propagated along an axon toward the nerve cell body. c. the resting membrane potential of the axon is too positive. d. the resting membrane potential of the axon is too negative. e. that area of the membrane is in the absolutely refractory period.

Some species of wasps are social. the queen starts a colony from scratch each spring. she builds a small nest, and lays and raises a group of female workers. the workers enlarge the nest while the queen continues to lay eggs. unfertilized eggs become males that mate with newly hatched females. all of the wasps except the newly fertilized females die by the summer. which best describes this behavior? a)it is beneficial only to the males that do not fertilize eggs. b)it is beneficial only to the female workers that are not fertilized. c)it is beneficial to each one of the individual colony members. d)it is beneficial to the whole species, but not to all of the individual members.
