When a sensory neuron is excited by some of energy the resulting graded potential is called?
Receptor potential or generator potential.
When a sensory neuron is excited by some form of energy the resulting graded potential is called?
receptor or generator potential
What does the gravitational potential energy of an object depend on?
It depends on the mass of the object, the local value of acceleration of gravity, and the object's height above the elevation you're using for your zero-potential-energy reference level.
How much gravitational potential energy is released when 1000kg of water descends 200m to the generators?
The formula for potential energy is mass times height times the local acceleration of gravity. Working with this, you have 1000 * 9.8 * 200.
What is the density of graded stone?
it depends ma cuzzie bro dahaha
Are graded potentials the same as local potentials?
Postsynaptic potentials are changes in the membrane potential of the postsynaptic terminal of a chemical synapse. Graded potentials are changes in membrane potential that vary in size, as opposed to being all-or-none, and are not postsynaptic potentials.
Dendrites conduct both graded and action potential?
no, dendrites and cell bodies can only have graded potential. action potential only occurs in axons
Is a postsynaptic potential a graded potential that is the result if a neurotransmitter released into the synapse between two neurons?
Yes it is true that graded potential can be called postsynaptic potentials. When a sensory neuron is excited by some form of energy, the resulting graded potential is called generator potential.
What can occur when the effects of one graded potential are added onto the effects produced by another graded potential which can lead to an action potential.?
More sodium ions pile up (accumulate) at the axon hillock from the combination of the two (or more) graded potentials, which may be then be sufficient to initiate the action potential.

How does graded potential occur?
Graded potential occurs when triggered by a stimulus and gated ion channels open these gated channels can either be chemically gated or mechanically gated. In order to have graded potential threshold must be met in order to generate action potential. Good day!
How does an action potential differ from a graded potential?
Action potentials also known as spikes, differ from graded potentials in that they do not diminish in strength as they travel through the neuron.
When a sensory neuron is excited by some of energy the resulting graded potential is called?
Receptor potential or generator potential.

Receptor potential or generator potential.
What parts of a neuron is capable of generating a graded potential?
The dendrites portion of a neuron will generate a potential.
Graded potential are they all or none?
graded potential are by definition VARIABLE in strength, and therefore NOT all or none. They start out at their strongest strength, and degrade (become weaker) as they progress further along.
A postsynaptic potential is a graded potential that is the result of a neurotransmitter released into the synapse between two neurons?
true
