After the falling phase or repolarization the membrane potential goes below its normal resting potential.
This phase is often called undershoot, or phase of hyperpolarization.
The stage that immediately follows depolarization in an action potential is repolarization. During this stage, potassium channels open and potassium ions move out of the cell, leading to a restoration of the cell's negative charge.
The stage that immediately follows depolarization in an action potential is repolarization. During repolarization, potassium ions move out of the cell, causing the membrane potential to return to its resting state.
The potassium (K+) channel gate opens immediately after an action potential has peaked. This allows potassium ions to flow out of the cell, resulting in repolarization of the membrane potential back to its resting state.
The period of repolarization of a neuron corresponds to the time when potassium ions move out of the neuron, allowing the cell to return to its resting potential. This phase follows the peak of the action potential when sodium channels close and potassium channels open, leading to membrane potential restoration. Repolarization is essential for the neuron to be able to generate subsequent action potentials.
Voltage-gated potassium channels open immediately after the action potential peak, allowing potassium ions to exit the cell. This repolarizes the cell membrane and helps bring it back to its resting state.
The stage that immediately follows depolarization in an action potential is repolarization. During this stage, potassium channels open and potassium ions move out of the cell, leading to a restoration of the cell's negative charge.
The stage that immediately follows depolarization in an action potential is repolarization. During repolarization, potassium ions move out of the cell, causing the membrane potential to return to its resting state.
falling action
climax
Rising action and falling action
After an action potential is fired, the neuron goes through a refractory period where it cannot fire another action potential immediately. During this time, the neuron resets its electrical charge and prepares for the next signal.
The action potential travels in one direction because of the refractory period, which prevents the neuron from firing again immediately after an action potential has been generated. This ensures that the signal moves in a linear fashion along the neuron.
The 'falling action' occurs immediately after the climax leading to the resolution or denouement.
The nerve cell hillock is the beginning of the axon immediately after the soma. This is where the action potential originates.
The action action potential produced needs to reach the threshold for the AP to be propagated. If it doesn't reach the threshold, there is not enough Na+ to stimulate the positive feedback system which allows the action potential to be self-propagated. Instead, K+ channels will be opened, and it will enter repolarisation phase, and the AP wll not be conducted. AND ALL YOU PEOPLE OUT THERE MAKE A RUNESCAPE ACCOUNT ! #1 MMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND DONT DO PRIVATE SERVERS THEY SUCK
An action potential propagates unidirectionally along an axon because of the refractory period, which prevents the neuron from firing in the opposite direction immediately after an action potential is generated. This ensures that the signal travels in one direction, from the cell body to the axon terminal.
