It has become activated/stimulated.
Then it does nothing unless the stimuli arrive at the same time to be above the threshold. Or the stimuli may undergo temporal summation (with buildup of neurotransmitters in the synapse), where their effects add up over time to be above the threshold.
No, subthreshold stimulation is not sufficient to trigger an action potential. The membrane potential needs to reach a certain threshold level for an action potential to be generated. Subthreshold stimulation only produces graded potentials that do not reach the threshold for firing an action potential.
When the electrons are at higher energy level,they are said to be excited state.
"Excited", or in an "excited state".
There is electrical potential difference between out side of the cell and inside of the cell, in case of the polarized neuron. This electrical difference is lost in case of depolarization. That is what can be said roughly.
what is subthreshold swing
Then it does nothing unless the stimuli arrive at the same time to be above the threshold. Or the stimuli may undergo temporal summation (with buildup of neurotransmitters in the synapse), where their effects add up over time to be above the threshold.
This electron is called excited.
inactive.
Subthreshold stimulus
The resulting graded potential is called a generator potential when a sensory neuron is excited by some form of energy. This potential may trigger an action potential if it reaches threshold.
Receptor potential or generator potential.
subthreshold stimulus
No, subthreshold stimulation is not sufficient to trigger an action potential. The membrane potential needs to reach a certain threshold level for an action potential to be generated. Subthreshold stimulation only produces graded potentials that do not reach the threshold for firing an action potential.
A neuron is an individual cell in the PNS or CNS that can be excited and conduct impulses along its axon. A nerve is a bundle of multiple neuron fibers that each are carrying their own signals. They are protected by connective tissue. Eventually the neuron fibers diverge away from the nerve to reach their destination.
It is said to be excited.
Requiem for a Dream. Although its not a Comedy.
