Subthreshold conduction refers to the electrical activity in neurons that occurs when the membrane potential is below the threshold needed to generate an action potential. In this state, a neuron can still exhibit changes in its membrane potential in response to stimuli, but these changes are not sufficient to trigger the rapid depolarization and repolarization associated with action potentials.
