Which of the following statements is true for excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSP)

A
Are self propagating
B
Show all or none response
C
Are proportional to the amount of transmitter released by the presynaptic neuron
D

EPSP is proportional to the amount of neurotransmitter released, so not an ‘all or none’ activity. It is not self-propagating, nor does it have any action on presynaptic terminal.
