At rest , the neuron ? s membrane potential is approximately ? 70 mV , with the of the cell negative relative to the . This polarisation is maintained by gradients ( ? and ? ) and selective permeability of the membrane .

2

When a stimulus the membrane to threshold ( ? 55 mV ) , an action potential is triggered . The rising slope of the graph is depolarisation . The membrane potential rises becoming less and reaching a peak of around + mV . The peak corresponds to depolarisation . This phase reflects a change in voltage along the and occurs in an - or - manner .

3

After reaching the peak , the membrane , returning toward the . The falling slope on the graph is . During this phase , the inside of the membrane becomes less , restoring the baseline . The membrane often becomes slightly more than resting , known as , before stabilising back at ? 70 mV .

Depolarisations that do not reach are " failed " depolarisations and do not produce a full . Action potentials propagate along the , and periods prevent movement and limit the of firing .
