Answer 1

False

Step-by-step explanation:

• The all-or-none law is the law that the strength by which a nerve or muscle fibre responds to a stimulus is independent of the strength of the stimulus.
• If that stimulus exceeds the threshold potential, the nerve or muscle fibre will give a complete response; otherwise, there is no response.
