synapses
During an action potential the neuron receives a stimulus causing the cell membrane to become more permeable to sodium than potassium, calling the polarity to change.
Functions of cell membrane or plasma membrane are-Shape-It provides definite shape to semifluid contents of the cell.Mechanical barrier-It functions as a mechanical barrier that protects the internal contents of the cell.Selectively Permeability-It is a selectively permeable membrane and allows entry of certain substances.Endocytosis-The flexibility of the membrane enables the cell to engulf food and other substances from its external environment by endocytosis. Amoeba acquires its food b this process.Recognition-It has substances over its surface which function as recognition centers and points of attachments. They help in tissue formation, distinction of foreign substances and defence against microbes.Flow of Information-It provides flow of information among different cells of the same organismOsmosis-It occurs due to the presence of tiny water channels in the plasma membrane.Cell Continuity-At places plasma membrane of adjacent cells become continuos to form plasmodesmata and cell junctions.Specialisation-Plasma Membrane gets modified to perform different functions like absorption in microvilli.
When a ligand-gated channel is stimulated, there is movement toward the extracellular side of the cell membrane. This allows the channel to become permeable to different ions.

Depolarization
synapses
depolarization
action potential of the sarcolemma(the membrane)
If the membrane is not permeable to either sodium and chloride ions or water then the concentrations of the liquids would remain the same. However, if the membrane was permeable to water or the ions then the plain water would become more salty while the salty water would become more dilute (due diffusion/osmosis, depending on the membrane's permeability).
Both the heart rate will decrease and the membrane will hyperpolarize
it would die as harmful substances entered the cells. (APEX)
During an action potential the neuron receives a stimulus causing the cell membrane to become more permeable to sodium than potassium, calling the polarity to change.
The state of equilibrium exists where the concentration of a substance is able to become even on both sides of a barrier, which is usually some semi permeable membrane.
