Summation is the method in which signal transmission between neurons occurs. Summation occurs through excitatory neurotramitters and inhibitory neurotransmitters. Excitatory produces depolarization of the postsynaptic cell. Inhibitory mitigates the effects of an excutatory neurotransmitter.

What is meant by summation of graded potentials?

The summation of graded potentials refers to the combined effect of multiple depolarizations or hyperpolarizations occurring simultaneously at different locations on a neuron. These individual changes in membrane potential can be added together to influence the overall excitability and likelihood of the neuron firing an action potential. Summation can be either spatial (when inputs come from different locations) or temporal (when inputs occur at different times).
