Answer:

The impulse is stopped dead if an action potential cannot be generated.

Step-by-step explanation:

The neurotransmitter binds with receptors on the other neuron. -If the K+ channels open, the neuron membrane becomes hyperpolarized, and inhibition occurs. The impulse is stopped dead if an action potential cannot be generated.
