Definitions:

Membrane Potential

The electrical potential difference across a cell's plasma membrane, vital for the conduction of nerve impulses, muscle contraction, and transport processes.

Depolarization

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

Repolarization

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

Afterpotential

Afterpotential represents the change in membrane potential that follows an action potential in nerve cells, affecting the cell's responsiveness to subsequent stimuli.
