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 (temporal summation).
English: Complete demonstration of the orgasm process of an adult male. The subject is a 27-year-old healthy circumcised Caucasian male. The video begins with the subject's genitals in a non-aroused flaccid state (0:00). As arousal progresses(0:30), the subject's penis becomes erect, the scrotum tightens and the testicles elevate.

The gastrocnemius muscle is heterogeneous, composed of both "red" and "pale" muscle, and thus containing fast-twitch high force fibers. Henneman's and colleagues took advantage of the differences between the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles to show that the neurons innervating the soleus muscle:
At the beginning of the video, his penis is flaccid (non-aroused, soft, and fully flexible). During arousal it becomes engorged with blood and the erectile tissues expand and harden, causing first a partial erection (1:20) in which the penis is larger and slightly firmer but still flexible, and then a full erection (2:30) in which the penis ...
The compound muscle action potential (CMAP) or compound motor action potential is an electrodiagnostic medicine investigation (electrical study of muscle function). The CMAP idealizes the summation of a group of almost simultaneous action potentials from several muscle fibers in the same area.
The muscle fibers belonging to one motor unit can be spread throughout part, or most of the entire muscle, depending on the number of fibers and size of the muscle. [2] [3] When a motor neuron is activated, all of the muscle fibers innervated by the motor neuron are stimulated and contract. The activation of one motor neuron will result in a ...
Signal transmission from nerve to muscle at the motor end plate. The neuromuscular junction is the synapse that is formed between an alpha motor neuron (α-MN) and the skeletal muscle fiber. In order for a muscle to contract, an action potential is first propagated down a nerve until it reaches the axon terminal of the motor neuron.
