Graded potential: Overview, Excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) & Inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs)

Graded potentials are changes in membrane potential that vary according to the size of the stimulus, as opposed to being all-or-none. They include diverse potentials such as receptor potentials, electrotonic potentials, subthreshold membrane potential oscillations, slow-wave potential, pacemaker potentials, and synaptic potentials. The magnitude of a…
