When neutron is resting, sodium Na+ ions have greater concentration
outside the neuron
When a neuron is resting the __ is more negative?
Inside
When a neuron is crossing is repolarizing, which ions crosses the membrane of the neuron?
K+ potassium
When a neuron is depolarizing, which ions crosses the membrane?
Na+ Sodium
The potassium pump moves sodium __ the cell
