Question
The opening of potassium (K+) channels on dendrites of a postsynaptic neuron will have what effect?
A) Depolarization
B) EPSP
C) Hyperpolarization
D) IPSP
E) Both A and B are correct
F) Both C and D are correct
Expert Solution
Step 1
Opening and closing of ion channels on the membrane leads to the Hyperpolarisation and Depolarisation; and changing the ability of particular ions to move in or out of the cell.
The opening of potassium channels on dendrites of postsynaptic neurons may occur due to binding of particular signal.molecules like neurotransmmiters.
