Want this question answered?
The resting membrane potential of a typical neuron is around -65mV
The resting membrane potential is maintained by solely by passive transport processes.

Resting membrane potential
-70 mV this potential difference in a resting neuron (Vr) is called the resting membrane potential, and the membrane is said to be polarized.
The resting membrane potential of a typical neuron is around -65mV
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.

Neurons have a resting membrane potential of approximately -70mV. Muscle cells have a resting membrane potential of approximately -90mV.

-70mV
Potential hyperpolarization are more negative to the resting membrane potential because of voltage. This is taught in biology.
