Definitions:

Action Potential

A rapid rise and subsequent fall in voltage or membrane potential across a cellular membrane with a characteristic pattern, crucial for nerve signal transmission.

Refractory Periods

Refractory periods are times following an action potential during which a neuron is less responsive to stimuli, ensuring the unidirectional flow of the signal.

Synaptic Knob
