At an inhibitory synapse (IPSP), the postsynaptic membrane experiences all of the above and is denoted as option B.

<h3>What is Hyperpolarization?</h3>

This is described as the opposite of depolarization and involves the cell's membrane potential being more negative.

At an inhibitory synapse (IPSP), the postsynaptic membrane becomes hyperpolarized which is characterized by an increase in permeability to both Na and K.
