Definitions:

Afterpotential

The transient change in membrane potential that occurs following a nerve impulse, affecting neuron excitability.

Depolarization

The process by which a cell's membrane potential becomes less negative, leading to an action potential in nerve and muscle cells.

Repolarization

The process by which a cell's membrane returns to its resting potential after depolarization.

Threshold

The minimum level of stimulus needed to activate a physiological response or sensation.
