Question
results in the generation of a postsynaptic potential by adding together the stimulations of multiple presynaptic neurons. answers: a - e a temporal summation b spatial summation c divergent series d salutatory conduction e convergent series
Spatial summation involves multiple presynaptic neurons stimulating a postsynaptic neuron simultaneously. Temporal summation is from one neuron firing repeatedly. Divergent/convergent series are not relevant here. Saltatory conduction is about nerve impulse jumping nodes. So spatial summation fits the description.
