Q

Endoplasmic reticulum

A

Transportation for chemicals inside the cell
Rough: ribosomes that provide proteins and important for membrane
Smooth: produces lipids, includes Golgi apparatus

A

Responsible for exocytosis (secretes products), lysosomes (contains enzymes that break down substances that are not needed anymore)

Q

Action potential

A

1) Na+ level in cell is kept low and exchanged with K+ using Na+ K+ pumps (3Na+ out for every 2K+ in) maintain resting potential (-70mV)
2) When stimuli reaches threshold, sodium channels (voltage dependent ion channels) open and Na+ rushes in due to diffusion and electrostatic pressure called causing Depolarization, resting potential from -70 mV to +40 mV”
3) Less sensitive voltage dependent potassium channels opens later, K+ leaves cell
When action potential reaches peak, sodium channels close, while potassium channels still open to return potential to normal value,
4) K+ channels close, excess K+ outside the cell causes Hyperpolarization, which diffuses in moments, denying immidiate AP, (called refractory period, where Cl- enters the cell).
