Summary Introduction

Introduction:

An action potential is a more considerable change formed by voltage-gated ion channels in the membrane. Any change in the resting membrane potential of a nerve cell produced by a stimulus, opening ligand regulated Na+ gate in the plasma membrane of the neuron.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Why do only a small number of sodium ions need to flow through the Na+ channel to change the membrane potential significantly?
What happens to the membrane potential when Na+/K+ pump is active?
Which of the following intracellular potentials would have the greatest electrical attraction for Na+ to enter the cell? -70mV Ⓒ) -100mV -50mV OmV +20mV
