Exam 2 Review (chapters 5 And 6) Flashcards

1
Q

What is the resting membrane potential and how is it set?

A

-70mV. It is set by K+ leaving the cell through potassium leakage channels, and K+ being a positive ion leaving the cell causes the inside of the cell to become more negative

Q

What would happen if Na+ leakage channels were more numerous or more effective than K+ leakage channels
