Chapter 11, Problem 14RAC
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
During the process of resting potential, inactivation gates open and activation gates close. It results in no diffusion of sodium ions. At the stage, when depolarization reaches the level of threshold, the activation gates open and closing of inactivation gates takes place.

Match each type of membrane potential to its definition:
The membrane potential at which voltage gated sodium channels open.
The membrane potential that triggers the action potential.
Threshold potential Change in membrane potential that may or may not reach threshold and that may be depolarizing or hyperpolarizing.
Rapid, strong depolarization followed by immediate repolarization. This potential is self-renewing if the right ion channels are nearby.
Answer Options: Resting Potential, Threshold Potential, Graded Potential, Action Potential
Graded potentials and action potentials are both changes in membrane potential created by ion movement between the extracellular and intracellular fluids.
When the membrane voltage shifts from the RMP to a more negative voltage; this is a

- Which of the following BEST explains the inside negative potential in resting neurons? sodium flows down its electrochemical gradient through sodium-selective channels that are open in resting neurons membrane transporters produce a large sodium concentration gradient by selectively accumulating sodium ions outside the cell the membrane of a resting neuron is more permeable to potassium ions than to other ions present a larger concentration of chloride ions are found inside the cell making the inside of the cell more negative compared to the outside of the cellarrow_forwardRepolarization occurs because Multiple Choice more sodium ions diffuse into the cell than potassium ions diffuse out of it. potassium ions continue to diffuse out of the cell after the inactivation gates of the voltage-gated sodium ion channels begin to close. the increased potassium ion permeability lasts slightly longer than the time required to bring the membrane potential back to its resting level. the extra efflux of potassium ions causes the membrane potential to become slightly more positive than the resting value. the inactivation gates of the voltage-gated sodium ion channels begin to open and the diffusion of sodium ions decreases.arrow_forwardAn action potential is regarded as an example of positive feedback. Which of the following examples below best illustrates the positive feedback aspect of an action potential? Voltage gated potassium ion channels open slowly and remain open long enough to cause hyperpolarization The sodium potassium pump consistently moves ions as long as ATP is available, and regardless of membrane potential changes. A threshold stimulus will cause the opening of voltage gated sodium ion channels that will cause further depolarization by opening still more voltage gated sodium ion channels along the axon.arrow_forward

Select ALL that are true. O Resting membrane potential is more polarized than in neurons, because of more Leakage channels for K+. Progressive Na+ channel (the "funny current", iNa) opening, activates a Transient Voltage Sensitive (T-type) Ca++ channel. Together these channels depolarize the membrane and activate Voltage-Sensitive Long-acting (L-Type) Ca++ channel. The resulting depolarization, closes the "funny" current and T-type Ca++ channels. O Action Potential depolarization, resulting from the Voltage-Activated Na+ channel, triggers Voltage-Sensitive Long-acting (L-Type) Ca++ channel. OMembrane depolarization triggers Voltage-Activated K+ channels (Delayed Rectifier) to open. Increasing K+ permeability and repolarizing the membrane.

The…arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements regarding action potentials is false? Na+ channel inactivation is due to a voltage-dependent block of the channel pore. Once Na+ channels enter the inactivated state, the only way to remove the inactivation is by repolarizing them (bring the neuron back to rest). Voltage-gated Na+ and K+ channels begin to open at the same time when the membrane is depolarized. The probability that voltage-gated Na+ channels will open is increased when the membrane depolarizes.arrow_forward
