Definitions:

Plasma Membrane

The lipid bilayer that encloses the cytoplasm of a cell, regulating the movement of substances in and out of the cell.

Depolarizing

A process in which a cell's membrane potential becomes less negative, moving towards zero, often leading to an action potential in neurons.

Repolarizing

The process by which a cell restores its membrane potential to a negative value after an action potential, preparing it for another action potential.

Hyperpolarizing

Hyperpolarizing refers to an increase in a cell's membrane potential, making it more negative and less likely to activate an action potential.
