What is membrane polarity?
-70 mV this potential difference in a resting neuron (Vr) is called the resting membrane potential, and the membrane is said to be polarized.
What is the Electrical condition of a plasma membrane of a resting neuron?
Polarized
What is the charge on the inside membrane during the resting membrane potential?
The resting membrane potential of a typical neuron is around -65mV
What about a cell's resting membrane potential is FALSE?
The resting membrane potential is maintained by solely by passive transport processes.
When a neuron is in a resting state the majority of the particles in the fluid surrounding the neuron are?
polarized
What is membrane polarity?
-70 mV this potential difference in a resting neuron (Vr) is called the resting membrane potential, and the membrane is said to be polarized.
What is a nerve membrane at rest called?
When the neural membrane (neurolemma) is at rest it is said to have resting potential, polarized, and has a negative charge inside.
Does all body cells exhibit a resting membrane potential in their resting state therefore making all cells polarized?
In resting state, all body cells exhibit a resting membrane potential that typically ranges from -50 to -100 millivolts, depending on cell type. For this reason , all cells are said to be polarized.
What is the Electrical condition of a plasma membrane of a resting neuron?
Polarized
What is the charge on the inside membrane during the resting membrane potential?
The resting membrane potential of a typical neuron is around -65mV
If a resting potential becomes more negative what happens to the cell?
When the membrane potential becomes more negative it is being hyperpolarized. Remember the resting membrane potential is already at a negative state (~70mV). So if you are making a comparison of a membrane potential that is hyperpolarized in comparison to a resting membrane potential, the resting membrane potential is said to be more depolarized.When the membrane potential becomes more positive it is called depolarization.
What about a cell's resting membrane potential is FALSE?
The resting membrane potential is maintained by solely by passive transport processes.
Electrical charge resulting from the difference between positive and negative ions outside and inside the brain cell membrane is called?
Membrane potential
When a neuron is in a resting state the majority of the particles in the fluid surrounding the neuron are?
polarized
Term that refers to a membrane potential of about -70 mv?
Resting membrane potential
What does the difference in the K and Na concentration on either side of the plasma membrane and permeability of the membrane to those ions generate?
resting membrane potential
What is the inside charge of a nerve at its resting potentail?
Neurons have a resting membrane potential of approximately -70mV. Muscle cells have a resting membrane potential of approximately -90mV.
