The steps go:
Depolarization, threshold potential, resting potential, and repolarization.
Hope this helps.

we have two surfaces of nerve cell the outer and inner surface resting : when the outer layer ion charge more positively than the inner layer deplarization : we have the counter part of this state repolarization : retun to the polarization hyperpolarization : the inner negative ion charges will be more negtive even more than the resting potential
