What is the difference between post-tetanic potentiation (PTP) and augmentation?
A) PTP lasts for minutes while augmentation lasts only for seconds.
B) Augmentation is an increase in the postsynaptic response amplitude while PTP is a reduced response.
C) Augmentation is a reduction in the postsynaptic response amplitude while PTP is an increased response.
D) PTP relates to current changes while augmentation leads to voltage changes.
E) PTP is a short-term change of synaptic strength while augmentation can last for hours.
