What is the stage in an action potential that immediately follow depolarisation?
After depolarization repolarization occur whcih then again lead to resting potentiol
What transmission of the depolarization wave along the neurons membrane?
Action potential
The depolarization of a neural membrane creates a?
Action potentialaction potential
What happens in the neurolemma as the result of an action potential?
It provides insulation to the axons and dendrites during depolarization or action potential.
Why don't the terms depolarization and action potential mean the same thing?
Depolarization occurs when a stimulus opens sodium channels which allow more sodium to go into the membrane making it less negative and more positive (toward reaching threshold). An action potential can only occur once the membrane reaches threshold which means it has reached the level needed through depolarization. An action potential is a brief reversal in polarity of the membrane making the inside more positive and the outside more negative, the reverse occurs again once the membrane reaches resting potential.

What change in membrane potential triggers action potential?
depolarization
What transmission of the depolarization wave along the neurons membrane?
Action potential
Which is the first step in a neuron production of an action potential?
Depolarization is the first event in action potential. During depolarization, the sodium gates open and the membrane depolarizes.
What change in membrane potential depolarization or hyperpolarization triggers an action potential?
despolarization

When the neuron is sussiciently stimulated this process and triggers the action potential?
depolarization
What change in membrane potential triggers an action potential?
An ion channel.
During depolarization of action potential the outer part of axon becomes?
Negative
When the neuron is sufficiently stimulated this process occurs and triggers the action potential?
depolarization
