Describe how muscle cells can generate potential difference?
Muscle cells generate potential difference through the movement of charged ions across their membrane. This is achieved by opening and closing ion channels in response to stimuli, such as nerve signals or changes in membrane potential. The movement of ions, such as sodium and potassium, creates an imbalance in charge that results in a potential difference across the cell membrane, which is essential for muscle contraction.
What type of energy can be utilized by your cells?
Cells primarily utilize potential energy stored in chemical bonds.
In living cells chemical processes such as synthesis require the action of?
Biological catalysts

What is resting potential?
A rest potential is the potential difference between two sides of the membrane of nerve cells when the cell is not conducting an impulse. =)
What term describes the difference in concentrations of a substance across a cells membrane?
action potential
What kind of energy is in your muscle cells?
Chemical potential, which can be converted to kinetic energy to make movement.
Is the chemical bond in sugar potential energy?
Yes, the chemical bond in sugar represents potential energy. When the bond is broken, energy is released, which can be used by cells to power various biological processes.
Factors affecting emf of electrochemical cells?
temperature,length of the wire,area,potential difference
