Which of these statements refers to IPSP A)It is produced by increased Na⁺ permeability and K⁺ permeability. B)It is produced by increased K⁺ permeability or increased Cl^- permeability. C)It is a small depolarization of the postsynaptic neuron. D)It is produced by increased Na⁺ permeability only.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

IPSP, or Inhibitory Postsynaptic Potential, is produced by increased potassium (K⁺) permeability or increased chloride (Cl⁻) permeability, leading to hyperpolarization or stabilization of the postsynaptic neuron's membrane potential, making it less likely to fire an action potential.
