Definitions:

Initial Segment

The part of a neuron where the axon originates from the cell body, crucial for the initiation of action potentials.

EPSPs

Excitatory PostSynaptic Potentials, which are increases in post-synaptic membrane potential caused by the flow of positively charged ions into the post-synaptic cell, potentially leading to action potential.

Temporal Summation

A process by which multiple subthreshold excitatory post-synaptic potentials (EPSPs) combine within a brief period to produce a larger postsynaptic potential.

Spatial Summation

The process by which multiple synaptic inputs from different locations on the same neuron combine to influence the firing rate or activity of the neuron.
