Action potential,membrane potential,graded potential are type of threshold for diffrent phase of neuron volting condition. For example, if the synapse has a weak electrophysiological characteristic that is not strongly influenced by current or voltage during synaptic firing and with low local field curvature (CFT), then it might be considered as an active region which needs no compensating postsynaptic actions from its neighbors to survive due either lack thereof or intrinsic cell death at later stages. However some authors argue that this criterion must be strictly adhered since there may also exist 'hard' neurons in transition between excitation and inhibition states depending on their structure; such regions thus require additional efforts than those involved primarily via efferents into other cells prior thereto.
