5.
What affect would changing the HF from 70Hz to 30Hz have on a spike and wave complex?
a. no affect
b. will decrease the frequency of the spike and wave complex
c. will decrease the amplitude of the slow wave
d. will decrease the amplitude of the spike - CORRECT ANSWER - d. will decrease the
amplitude of the spike
HF affects fast wave. Spikes are fast and change in the HF will decrease the amplitude of the
spike.
