Long-term potentiation (LTP) increases the number of postsynaptic receptors at a synapse involved in memory. What could be a possible long-term effect of LTP?

Question

The synapse becomes stronger, leading to improved memory recall.

The synapse becomes stronger, leading to increased neuronal plasticity

The synapse becomes weaker, requiring temporal summation to

recall the memory.

The synapse becomes weaker, requiring spatial summation from multiple presynaptic neurons to recall the memory

(1 point)

Answer 1

The synapse becomes stronger, leading to improved memory recall.
