a) Describe the behavior of an unaffected neuron sitting at its membrane resting potential stimulated by a suprathreshold stimulus. b) Now, add the effects of the consumption of the Fugu toxin and stimulate that neuron with a supra- threshold stimulus. - Describe (and/or diagram) the effect on the membrane potential by supra-threshold stimulation under this condition. c. Using any ONE (1) of the following three (3) means we have used to interpret the resulting membrane potential for a neuron, describe the effect of the Fugu toxin on a neuron: i) Goldman’s equation ii) “Driving” toward Ex of most permeable ion iii) Movement/flow of charge + charges
