Neuron receives a series of stimuli whose effect is excitatory but subthreshold?

If a neuron receives a series of stimuli that have an excitatory effect but do not reach the threshold for action potential initiation, the neuron will not fire. This is because the individual stimuli do not generate a strong enough depolarization to reach the threshold. However, if enough subthreshold stimuli are received in a short period of time, they can summate and reach the threshold, generating an action potential.


Can subthreshold stimulation cause an action potential?

no

What is the difference between nerve and neuron?

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.
