2. Neuron during an action potential: a. What triggers the first action potential (which ion)? b. What is the typical threshold potential of a neuron? c. The calculated equilibrium potential of Na+ (EN) is approx. +60mV (calculated). Explain how this is related to the rising phase of an action potential (depolarization). d. The calculated equilibrium potential of K+ (EK) is approx. -90mV. Explain how this is related to the falling phase (repolarization). e. Direction of Nation movement (influx/efflux). f. Direction...
The action potential occurs when the voltage across a cell membrane experiences an increase from the resting potential (−70.mV) to about 30.mV. This depolarization, in turn, causes a similar response all along the cell membrane; the result is an electrical impulse that sends a signal along the axon of a neuron. The cell membranes can be about 5.0nm across and have an electric field across them due to the change in potential. What is the electric field across the membrane...

Question 4 2 pts During and action potential, sodium (Na+) rushes into the cell causing of the cell. Then sodium channels close and potassium (K+) rushes out of the cell, causing of the cell. However, the potassium overshoots and causes Question 5 2 pts During the refractory period, the pumps Na+ ions out of the cell and K+ions into the cell, re-establishing the resting membrane potential and concentration gradient.

Neuron Signaling and Muscle Contraction 1) “Dissect” the various parts of an action potential by describing the status (active or nonactive) of the voltage-gated sodium channel, voltage-gated potassium channel, sodium/potassium pump, and overall voltage and/ or voltage range (in millivolts, or mV) for each of the following. A) Resting membrane (prior to the initiation of an action potential) B) just before threshold to just after threshold (Depolarization) C) Rising phase of the action potential D) Falling phase of the action...

Cell # 1 forms an excitatory synapse onto cell # 2 , when cell #1 fires a single action potential it releases glutamate onto the membrane of cell #2 resulting in a 5 millivolt depolarization, a 5 mV excitatory postsynaptic potential, when cell #1 fires three action potentials in rapid succession this causes a 15 mV depolarization in cell #2 resulting in cell #2 reaching threshold and firing its own action potential. Cell #1 Cell #2 +40 Vm IN Cell...

Consider the following for problems 1 through 5: The concept of electric potential difference plays an important role in the human nervous system. A nervous impulse, for example, is an action potential that results from the temporal rising and lowering of the cell membrane potential, which in turn is caused by the equally temporal influx of sodium (Na+) ions into the cell. The sodium ions enter the cell through Hodgkin-Huxley channels, named after English physiologist/biophysicists Alan Hodgkin and Andrew Huxley....
