### 23. Neurotransmitter Binding and Synaptic Potentials

- **Neurotransmitter binding** to the post-synaptic membrane, and the opening of potassium and/or chloride channels, result in hyperpolarization of the post-synaptic membrane.
  - a) is called an excitatory post-synaptic potential (EPSP).
  - b) is called an inhibitory post-synaptic potential (IPSP).
  - c) results in the generation of an action potential in the post-synaptic membrane.
  - d) results in one level of membrane depolarization regardless of the amount of neurotransmitter released.

### 24. Integration and Modification of Synaptic Events

- **Which of the following statements is correct regarding the integration and modification of synaptic events?**
  - a) Very rapid transmission of impulses from the presynaptic neuron induces temporal summation that results in greater depolarization of the postsynaptic membrane if the stimuli are EPSPs.
  - b) Stimulation of the post-synaptic neuron by large numbers of presynaptic terminals induces spatial summation which also enhances depolarization.
  - c) IPSPs can also show temporal and spatial summation which result in enhanced hyperpolarization of the post-synaptic membrane.
  - d) Repeated stimulation of the presynaptic neuron produces postsynaptic potential changes that are larger than predicted by the strength of the stimulus—a phenomenon called synaptic potentiation.
  - e) All of the above (a, b, c, and d) are correct.
