Final answer:
In a Sensory Nerve Action Potential (SNAP) recording, decreasing the inter-electrode distance will result in an increased amplitude and decreased latency of the recorded signals.
Step-by-step explanation:
Decreasing the inter-electrode distance in a Sensory Nerve Action Potential (SNAP) recording would effectively increase the amplitude and decrease the latency of the recorded potentials. When electrodes are placed closer together on a nerve, the electrical signal does not have to travel as far to reach both electrodes, which results in a shorter time for the signal to be recorded (decreased latency). Additionally, moving the electrodes closer may increase the action potential's amplitude due to the improved ability of the electrodes to pick up the signal's power before it dissipates.
