Polar

acts to maintain gradient

higher [Na+] outside cell

higher [K+] inside cell

Every time three Na+ moves out of cell

everytime move 2 K+ into cell

Significant energy expenditure by cell (around fifty percent)

Moving ions around

pump: Moves against gradient, changes shape, when open to inside cell Na+ binds and K+ leaves, When open to outside cell Na+ leave and K+ attach

Q

response can be additive

A

lots of sgnals-both inhibitory and excitatory signals add up

temporal summation

stimulus close to second

run together

rapid succession

adding together

bigger change

spatial summation

stimulations at multiple places on cell at same time
if didn’t have multiple wouldn’t reach threshold

if didn’t have multiple wouldn’t reach threshold

A

subthreshold

suprathreshold and all the subthreshold

graded

below threshold

suprathreshold and all the all or none principle

all or none

action potential

above threshold
