Question
37. 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 hyperpolarizationExplanation / Answer
d. Stimulation of neuron A causes hyperpolarization
