A neuron with resting membrane potential -65mV and threshold of -50mV receives i

Question

A neuron with resting membrane potential -65mV and threshold of -50mV receives inhibitory input from neuron A and excitatory input from neuron B and C. a. Stimulation of neuron B produces an excitartory post synaptic potential or EPSP b. Simultaneous stimulation of B and C produce a positive charge in membrane potential that equals 10mV. Consequently, stimulation of B and C will reach threshold and generate AP c. Simultaneous stimulation A and B is example of spatial summation d. Stimulation of neuron A causes hyperpolarization

Explanation / Answer

d. Stimulation of neuron A causes hyperpolarization
