Neuronal noise or neural noise refers to the random intrinsic electrical fluctuations within neuronal networks. These fluctuations are not associated with encoding a response to internal or external stimuli and can be from one to two orders of magnitude. Most noise commonly occurs below a voltage-threshold that is needed for an action potential to occur, but sometimes it can be present in the form of an action potential; for example, stochastic oscillations in pacemaker neurons in suprachiasmatic nucleus are partially responsible for the organization of circadian rhythms.

What is Sound? - Quickly Discover What Sound Really Is
What is Sound? This simple demonstration visually shows how sound waves are produced from a vibrating surface. A frequency generator is hooked up to a power amplifier, and the resultant signal is used to drive a loudspeaker. The signal is also sent to an oscilloscope. After listen
