Selective Transmission of Single Photon Responses by Saturation at the Rod-to-Rod Bipolar Synapse; Neuron, Volume 41, Issue 3, 5 February 2004, ... A threshold-like nonlinearity in signal transfer from mouse rod photoreceptors to rod bipolar cells dramatically improves the absolute sensitivity of the rod signals.

Thus the signal transfer function discussed in Section 7.3 or the coding characteristics discussed in Section 7.4 can also be interpreted as single-neuron properties. Before we dive into the main arguments we derive in Section 7.1 the linearized population equation that will be used throughout this chapter.

Neuron - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A neuron (pronounced /ˈnjʊərɒn/ N(Y)OOR -on , also known as a neurone or nerve cell ) is an excitable cell in the nervous system that processes and transmits information by elect...

If the aggregate input is greater than the axon hillock's threshold value, then the neuron fires, and an output signal is transmitted down the axon. The strength of the output is constant, regardless of whether the input was just above the threshold, or a hundred times as great.

From Yanofsky’s BEYOND BIOLOGY:  INSIDE THE NEURON (Chapter I) Continued ... Part  II Neuron as Executive ... In most cases the individual neuron makes a binary decision, that is, at a given moment it is either firing or not, similar to a series of 0's and 1's in a computer. The computer analogy is even more obvious but...

It should also be pointed out that some investigators speak of signals which excite a neuron (implying that a signal that does not cause an action potential type of response is not important). In the case of vision, this is patently untrue.
