Summary Introduction

To describe: The factor that influences the local currents that associate with graded potential.

Introduction: The changes in the membrane potential of the plasma membrane in the neuron are stimuli for the neural activity. The plasma membrane is a selectively permeable membrane that has gated channels for the passage of ions to conduct neural activity.
