Figure 1.

Three motor units recorded from the same rat, under control conditions and when the animal was breathing 6% inspired CO2. A through C show six superimposed spikes, demonstrating clear discrimination of motor units on the basis of waveform shape and amplitude. Also note that the shape and amplitude of each potential remained constant when respiratory drive increased with CO2 breathing. a.u. = arbitrary units.
