The voltage at a receptor site has just changed from -70 millivolts to -75 millivolts as a result of an _______ and will ________.

a). inhibitory postsynaptic potential;increase the likelihood of an action potential.
b). excitatory postsynaptic potential;decrease the likelihood of an action potential.
c).nhibitory postsynaptic potential;decrease the likelihood of an action potential.
