chloride ion influx across the already depolarized membrane;
no change in potential across the resting membrane;
all of the alternatives provided are correct;

CORRECT - Yes, the influence of inhibitory neurotransmitters on the postsynaptic membrane is dependent on the state of the membrane at the time of release. Each influence described in the alternatives provided is correct.
