Which of these statements does NOT refer to neuronal inhibition
A)With presynaptic inhibition, another neuron selectively excites an inhibitory presynaptic input.
B)An IPSP depresses information fed into the cell from any excitatory presynaptic input.
C)All the axon terminals of an inhibitory neuron will release inhibitory transmitter.
D)An IPSP moves the potential of the postsynaptic neuron farther from threshold.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Presynaptic inhibition involves the selective excitation of an inhibitory presynaptic input, which indirectly reduces the effect of excitatory inputs rather than directly inhibiting a neuron. This process does not refer to the direct inhibition of a neuron's activity but rather to the modulation of excitatory inputs.
