Q

what are the 4 terms describing LTP action?
what is meant by each one

A

specificity - sites of LTP confined to a specific site
associativity - strong stimulation at one pathway will induce LTP for weak pathways at the same site
cooperativity - many weak stimuli can induce LTP
persistence - potentiation can last minutes, weeks, months
