Action Potential
Resting potential
Potential hyperpolarization are more negative to the resting membrane potential because of voltage. This is taught in biology.
Potential, ok well we all know it's a potential, but which one? Is it Action Potential, Synaptic Potential or Membrane Potential. Just saying Potential isn't saying much?
The electrical potential of the cell body changes during an action potential from a negative potential of around -70 mV to a positive potential of +40 mV. The resting potential, however, remains constant.

depolarization
Resting Potential: the potential remains sameAction Potential: potential causes the opening of voltage-gated sodium channels
1/2500 sec is the absolute refractory period.
Action potential is a short-lasting event in which the electrical membrane potential of a cell rapidly rises and falls, following a consistent trajectory. Action potentials occur in several types of animal cells, which include neurons, muscle cells, and endocrine cells, as well as in some plant cells. In neurons, they play a central role in cell-to-cell communication.
