An EPSP is an excitatory postsynaptic potential, which represent input coming from excitatory cells, whereas an inhibitory postsynaptic potential represents input driven by inhibitory presynaptic cells.
It can be an excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) or an inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP), depending on the synapse. The EPSP depolarizes the membrane, while the IPSP hyperpolarizes it.
EPSP (excitatory postsynaptic potential) and IPSP (inhibitory postsynaptic potential) are two types of postsynaptic potentials that occur in neurons. EPSPs result from the binding of neurotransmitters that lead to depolarization of the postsynaptic membrane, making the neuron more likely to fire an action potential. In contrast, IPSPs are caused by neurotransmitters that hyperpolarize the postsynaptic membrane, decreasing the likelihood of action potential firing. Together, EPSPs and IPSPs regulate neuronal excitability and communication within the nervous system.
Rods produce steady ion flow in the dark that cuases an IPSP that produces no signal in optic nerve. When rod absorbs light, dark current ceases and no inhibiion occurs to EPSP occurs in optic nerve.
A neuron will have an action potential if the stimuli it receives are strong enough to reach its threshold level. Once the threshold is reached, voltage-gated channels open, allowing an influx of sodium ions which triggers depolarization and leads to the generation of an action potential.
An excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) is larger when the membrane potential is more hyperpolarized than resting potential because the driving force for sodium ions (Na⁺) influx increases. When the membrane is hyperpolarized, the difference between the resting potential and the sodium equilibrium potential is greater, leading to a stronger current flow when sodium channels open. This enhanced influx of sodium ions results in a more significant depolarization, producing a larger EPSP. Essentially, the larger potential difference allows for a greater excitatory response.

yes, IPSP are associated with hyperpolarization because it inhibits Action Potentials from occurring and by doing so the neuron becomes hyperpolarized again
According to Biologists, the hyper polarization of a dendrite by a neurotransmitter is known as an inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP).
I will tell you how to download v 1.1 on psp slim.you will need to have:psp,USB Cord and CFW.you first go to any website to download IPSP v 1.1.save it in your MP_ROOT File.Also maybe psp and common file.you also need a flash player.After that,go on the internet browser and in the address bar,type file:/psp/common/ipsp/index.html.Then have fun with your ipsp and make your friends jealous!

you cannot the sites down its fluidmarkup.com though when it goes back up
EPSP stands for excitatory postsynaptic potential. It is a temporary depolarization of postsynaptic membrane potential caused by the flow of positively charged ions into the neuron, usually due to the binding of neurotransmitters to their receptors. EPSPs can help to trigger an action potential in the neuron.
