|
polarisation
|
|
depolarisation
|
|
hyperpolarisation
|
|
None of the above

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Hyperpolarization is when the membrane potential becomes more negative at a particular spot on the neuron’s membrane, while depolarization is when the membrane potential becomes less negative (more positive).
Detailed explanation-2: -An action potential is caused by either threshold or suprathreshold stimuli upon a neuron. It consists of three phases: depolarization, overshoot, and repolarization. An action potential propagates along the cell membrane of an axon until it reaches the terminal button.
