An electroencephalogram (EEG)is a recording of an action potential from a single active neuron.

Electroencephalogram (EEG)

A test that measures electrical activity in the brain using small, metal discs attached to the scalp.

Action Potential

A rapid, temporary change in the electrical potential across a cell membrane, leading to the transmission of nerve impulses.

Single Active Neuron

describes a scenario where only one neuron is actively firing, often used in neurological studies to understand neuronal behavior.
