When it reaches the nerve impulse threshold, the next neuron will fire..
The Action Potential
When a memrain reaches the the threshold potential. The threshold potential is around -55 mV.
recruitment
Ions can cross the neuron membrane through specific protein channels. These channels are selective, allowing only certain ions to pass through based on their size and charge. Additionally, ions can also be transported across the neuron membrane through active transport processes, which require energy in the form of ATP.
All neurotransmitters have an effect on the post synaptic membrane of either inhibition or excitation. Dopamine is an Excitatory NT so if a Excitatory Neuron meets with another Excitatory Neuron it creates Excitation. However if it meets with an Inhibitory Neuron Dopamine and the other Excitatory NT's wll only create Inhibition. Only GABA and Glycine are considered Inhhibitory NTransmitters.
When a neuron is polarized, usually by the influx of chloride ions into the neuron, it is incapable of creating an action potential (incapable of firing). Only when the neuron returns to a resting potential, via pumping ions back across the membrane, can it be depolarized (sodium ion influx) to generate an action potential.
The cell membrane becomes more permeable to the sodium potassium ions.
Well, for starters, membrane potential is a separation of charges across the membrane. So i think what you mean is "generating the action potential in a neuron". So in that case The substance that plays a major role in generating an action potential is Sodium (Na+). However, if you really mean membrane potential, there is only two substances associated with that and those are sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+).However, in truth, the generation of an action potential depends on the ligand and its receptor.

The entire signal travels in the neuron by a graded potential which is created in the dendrites and the body (soma) of the neuron, then it reaches a spot of the neuron which is called the axon-hillock where the signal now for the first time has encountered "voltage-gated channels" and now can create an Action potential that can propagate through the terminus of the neuron which is the length of the axon.

myelin, although it is really only around the AXON of the neuron, not the whole neuron.
At rest sodium in the outside and potassium on the inside as action potential propagate along the axon, depolirization happens and sodium channel opens and allow sodium ions to flood into the neurone. A wave of deporization spread along the neuron, the neuron membrane contain specialised protein called channels. the channel from pore.
No.
only small amount of fires
That is referred to as a motor neuron.
it only has 1
