Homework Answers
Answer is option 3 - the difference in charge across the membrane
Explanation -It is the difference between the potential inside and outside the membrane. Potential is produce due to charge so it can also be defined as the difference between charge across the membrane.
wrong option -
option 1 the difference in the molecular concentration across the membrane is known as concentration gradient.
option 2 the ability of molecule to pass through membrane is known as diffusion / (osmosis in case of semi permeable membrane)
option 4 the number of molecule cross the membrane per hour is known as diffusion rate or diffusion per hour.

Ion channels that switch open and close as the potential difference across the cell membrane changes...
Ion channels that switch open and close as the potential difference across the cell membrane changes are an essential component of the cell membrane. Most such channels contain a molecular ion with a significant electrical charge at their core. Suppose a protein contains a molecular ion with a charge of -12e and that this protein is embedded in a cell membrane that has a thickness of 9 nm. What are the magnitude and direction of electric force on the ion...

A typical cell has an electric potential difference across its cell membrane, The electric potential interior to the cell is 70mV less than that on the exterior. Under certain circumstances, the cell can redistribute charge so that the electric potential inside is 40 mV greater than that outside. Assuming the membrane is 12 nm thick and that the net electric field inside it is uniform, how does that field change in the transition from having an interior that is 70...
