Depolarization

A decrease in membrane potential that makes the interior of a cell less negative compared to the outside, crucial for nerve impulse transmission.

Voltage-Gated Channel

A type of protein channel in cell membranes that opens or closes in response to changes in electrical membrane potential.

Synaptic Vesicle

Secretory vesicle in the presynaptic terminal containing neurotransmitter substances.
