entire inside of the cell (intracellular fluid) is

neutral

entire outside of the cell (extracellular fluid) is

neutral

is potassium more intracellular or extracellular

intracellular

is sodium more intracellular or extracellular

extracellular

is chloride more intracellular or extracellular

extracellular

is protein (P-) more intracellular or extracellular

intracellular

does resting membrane potential require a stimuli

no

what is charge of the resting membrane potential

-70 to -90 millivolts

the resting membrane charge occurs because

K+ goes from inside the cell to the outside

does local potential require a stimuli

yes

what happens to the membrane because of the stimuli for local potential

the membrane become more permeable to either K+ or Cl- or Na+

if the membrane in local potential become more permeable to K+ then what happens to K+

K+ moves from inside the cell to the outside, making the inside of the cell membrane more negative.

what is it called when K+ moves from inside the cell to the outside, making the inside of the cell membrane more negative.

hyperpolarization

If the membrane became more permeable to Cl- then what happens

Cl- moves from outside the cell to the inside, making the cell more negative.

what is it called when Cl-moves from outside the cell to the inside, making the cell more negative.

hyperpolarization

if the membrane became more permeable to Na+ then what would happen

Na+ moves from out to in, making the inside less negative

what is it called when Na+ moves from out to in, making the inside less negative

depolarization

what is the only one that touches the threshold

depolarization

requires a stimuli

local potential

can be of two types

local potential

is graded

local potential

can show the phenomenon of accommodation

local potential

occurs if a depolarizing type of local potential touches the threshold

action potential

shows a all or non phenomenon

action potential

has three phases

action potential

due to Na+ moving form outside to inside making the inside of the cell membrane less negative and then positive

depolarizing phase of action potential

due to K+ moving from inside to outside making the inside of the cell membrane less positive and then negative

repolarizing phase of action potential

due to sodium-potassium exchange pump, requires energy

afterpotential phase

transmission of action potential from one cell to the other cell occurs at specialized areas called

synapse

what requires the use of neurotransmitters (acetylocholine, dopamine, etc)

synapse
