    Normal EMG should have a larger amplitude because inhibition of the motor unit would lead to less electric signals being generated.

    Given that Brett ate a poisonous wild mushroom, his amplitude will be lower since his motor unit has been partially paralyzed. This means that electric signals cannot be properly generated in his body, thus the lower amplitude in the EMG.
