Answer 1

Answer- Postsynaptic potentials travel like electrical signals along a cable.

Explanation-Postsynaptic potential refers to a temporary modification at the electrical polarization. This temporary modification can be responsible for a fired new impulse. The speed of the Postsynaptic potential is kind of similar to the traveling of electrical signals in the cable.
