question

What is an EPSP? What is an IPSP? How do they affect a nerve cell's excitability?

category

psychology

options

  1. EPSP and IPSP are types of nerve cells.
  2. Both EPSP and IPSP reduce the likelihood of a nerve cell reaching threshold and firing an action potential.
  3. EPSP and IPSP are neurotransmitters released by glial cells that do not directly affect nerve cells.
  4. EPSP refers to a nerve cell's energy production surge, while IPSP refers to its energy conservation state.
  5. EPSP is an inhibitory postsynaptic potential and IPSP is an excitatory postsynaptic potential.
  6. An EPSP is a permanent change in nerve cell excitability, while an IPSP is a temporary change that lasts only a few seconds.
  7. An EPSP is an excitatory postsynaptic potential making a nerve cell more likely to fire and an IPSP is an inhibitory post synaptic potential making it less likely to fire.
  8. EPSP is a protein that enhances nerve growth, and IPSP is a molecule that prevents nerve growth.
  9. EPSP increases a nerve cell's excitability by decreasing its membrane potential, while IPSP decreases excitability by increasing the membrane potential.
  10. EPSP and IPSP do not affect a nerve cell's excitability.
