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.

What type of membrane potential is generated at the synapse on the postsynaptic membrane?

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.


Why do rods not function effectively in bright light?

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.


What determines whether a neuron has an action potential?

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.


Where to get ipsp 1.2?

Try fluid Markup


Is IPSP is associated with hyperpolarization?

yes, IPSP are associated with hyperpolarization because it inhibits Action Potentials from occurring and by doing so the neuron becomes hyperpolarized again


What is hyperpolarization of a dendrite by a neurotransmitter called?

According to Biologists, the hyper polarization of a dendrite by a neurotransmitter is known as an inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP).


Will any two EPSPs override one IPSP?

false


How do you download ipsp on psp?

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!


Were to get ipsp?

you cannot the sites down its fluidmarkup.com though when it goes back up


What are epsp?

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.


Can you get apps on ipsp?

yes actually its simple, all you have to do is download the app or pic or whatever off the internet {not bye psp} then plug in your psp via usb then copy app or pic to psp/iphone{or ipsp}/app,picture,game,etc.. and there you have it


How do you get games on PSP?

LoL you can't 'get' an ipsp on a psp. The ipsp is like a completely new device with different software. Also psp is completely different to ipsp. if you really want to get ipsp on psp, buy a psp and an ipsp, stack them on top of each other, and smash through with a hammer.
