end plate potential
11postsynaptic potential — ▪ biology a temporary change in the electric polarization of the membrane of a nerve cell ( neuron). The result of chemical transmission of a nerve impulse at the synapse (neuronal junction), the postsynaptic potential can lead to the… …
12postsynaptic potential — In a synapse, a change in the resting potential of a postsynaptic cell following stimulation of the presynaptic cell. For example, in a cholinergic synapse, the release of acetylcholine from the presynaptic cell causes channels to open in the… …
13Reversal potential — This article is about the biological application of the Nernst equation. For the general equation, see Nernst equation. In a biological membrane, the reversal potential (also known as the Nernst potential) of an ion is the membrane potential at… …
14Tetany (action potential summation) — Tetany is a muscular physical state at which action potentials from nerves arrive to the skeletal muscle motor end plate rapidly enough in succession to cause a steady contraction. This differs from individual twitches in that the twitches are… …
15Computer to plate — (CTP) is an imaging technology used in modern printing processes. In this technology, an image created in a Desktop Publishing (DTP) application is output directly to a printing plate. Negative lithographic printing plate …
