The scenerios that will most likely trigger an action potential are :
- Single excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) arriving simultaneously at several different synapses (spatial summation) on the postsynaptic cell.
- Multiple excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) arriving close in time at a single synapse (temporal summation) on the postsynaptic cell.
What is an action potential
An action potential involves the depolarization of a polarized membrane and this occurs when a neuron sends an impulse to an axon away from the body of a cell. The scenarios that most likely depicts the triggering of an action potential are :
- single excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) arriving simultaneously at several different synapses (spatial summation) on the postsynaptic cell.
- multiple excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) arriving close in time at a single synapse (temporal summation) on the postsynaptic cell.
Hence we can conclude that te scenarios are as listed above.
