Question
Neuron F releases neurotransmitter onto the dendrite of Neuron G. A single impulse from Neuron F results in a 1mV depolarization at the site of synapse. Based on this, which of the following statements is FALSE?
a. Each time Neuron F "fires," it releases approximately the same amount of neurotransmitter onto Neuron G. b. An individual excitatory graded potential generated by an impulse from Neuron F will cause less than 1mV depolarization at the axon hillock of Neuron G. c. Neuron F is the presynaptic cell and Neuron G is the post-synaptic cell. d. Temporal summation of impulses from Neuron F would hyperpolarize Neuron G.Explanation / Answer
Based on the given information, the false statement is "Temporal summation of impulses from Neuron F would hyperpolarize Neuron G."
