  2. Inhibitory postsynaptic potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inhibitory_postsynaptic...

    The results showed that both compound and unitary inhibitory postsynaptic potentials are amplified by dendritic calcium ion channels. The width of a somatic IPSP is independent of the distance between the soma and the synapse whereas the rise time increases with this distance. These IPSPs also regulate theta rhythms in pyramidal cells.

  3. Summation (neurophysiology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation_(neurophysiology)

    Basic ways that neurons can interact with each other when converting input to output. Summation, which includes both spatial summation and temporal summation, is the process that determines whether or not an action potential will be generated by the combined effects of excitatory and inhibitory signals, both from multiple simultaneous inputs (spatial summation), and from repeated inputs ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatic_nervous_system

    The somatic nervous system (SNS), also known as voluntary nervous system, is a part of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that links brain and spinal cord to skeletal muscles under conscious control, as well as to sensory receptors in the skin. [1] [2] The other part complementary to the somatic nervous system is the autonomic nervous system ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatosensory_system

    The somatosensory system, or somatic sensory system is a subset of the sensory nervous system. It has two subdivisions, one for the detection of mechanosensory information related to touch, and the other for the nociception detection of pain and temperature. [ 1 ]

    In neuroscience, the axolemma (from Greek lemma 'membrane, envelope', and 'axo-' from axon [1]) is the cell membrane of an axon, [1] the branch of a neuron through which signals (action potentials) are transmitted.

  9. Direct comparison test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_comparison_test

    In mathematics, the comparison test, sometimes called the direct comparison test to distinguish it from similar related tests (especially the limit comparison test), provides a way of deducing whether an infinite series or an improper integral converges or diverges by comparing the series or integral to one whose convergence properties are known.
