An interneuron may receive multiple stimuli from the same sensory neuron over a very short period of time. The firing rate of the receiving neuron is proportional to the number of signals received from the sensory neuron over time. Of which of the following is this an example?

A. spatial summation

B. action potential

C. temporal summation

D. hyperpolarization

"Temporal summation" is an example.

Explanation:

Temporal summation is a medical measure of fundamental sensitization in which "a increased occurrence of accomplishment potentials in the pre synaptic neuron elicits postsynaptic potentials that overlay and summate with each other. Temporal summation happens when a increased frequency of exploit potentials in the pre synaptic neuron provokes postsynaptic potentials that summate with each other. If the time continuous of the cell membrane is adequately long, as is the case for the cell body, then the quantity of summation is increased.
