3.  Compare and contrast an action potential and alocal post-synaptic potential in terms of where they occur on aneuron, the change in charge, how they propagate through a neuron.(3)
6.  What is an EPSP and IPSP? Provide a definition,not just spelling out the acronym. (2) Provide a specific exampleof how each can be generated in a neuron. (4)
8.  Imagine humans have a single hypothetical neuronthat controls the decision to get out of bed. This neuron receivesmany inputs from other neurons; some generate EPSPs and somegenerate IPSPs. When this neuron fires an action potential, theperson gets out of bed in the morning to start their day. Provide 5different types of input that would generate EPSPs or IPSPs butultimately result in a decision to get out of bed. For example: “Aweak EPSP occurred when my dog licked my face, so I knew he neededto go for a walk.â€
