Want this question answered?
By self regenerating, they mean that when you start an action potential, it continues in proximal (nearby) tissue (e.g., nerve). The depolarization of the action potential continues along the nerve.
Well, for starters, membrane potential is a separation of charges across the membrane. So i think what you mean is "generating the action potential in a neuron". So in that case The substance that plays a major role in generating an action potential is Sodium (Na+). However, if you really mean membrane potential, there is only two substances associated with that and those are sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+).However, in truth, the generation of an action potential depends on the ligand and its receptor.
What does "the following"mean ?
Conduction is the transfer of heat from an area of warmer temperature to an area of colder temperature.
Depolarization occurs when a stimulus opens sodium channels which allow more sodium to go into the membrane making it less negative and more positive (toward reaching threshold). An action potential can only occur once the membrane reaches threshold which means it has reached the level needed through depolarization. An action potential is a brief reversal in polarity of the membrane making the inside more positive and the outside more negative, the reverse occurs again once the membrane reaches resting potential.

You will have to specify what action? If you mean movement, a moving object has kinetic energy and energy could have been transferred from a release of chemical or potential energy.
If you mean electrical conduction, that requires electrical charges that are fairly free to move around.

as useful as " is conduction or what part of speech it is?
the transfer of heat from one end of body to another end of body is called conduction of heat
IT MEAN daogQD,EG'
A local nerve conduction lesion or block
