IP BIO Cell Membranes The cell membrane in a nerve cell has a thictcness of 0.12μ m. (a) Approximating the cell membrane as a parallel−plate capacitor with a surface charge density of 5.9 × 10−6 C/m2, find the electric field within the membrane. (b) If the thickness of the membrane were doubled, would your answer to part (a) increase, decrease, or stay the same? Explain.
