Biopotential and Measurements-Module 2

Which part of the cell is responsible for controlling what enters and exits the cell?

What is the typical resting membrane potential of a neuron?

The rapid change in membrane potential during an action potential is primarily due to the movement of which ion?

Bioelectric potentials are generated due to the movement of ions across which structure?

What term describes the depolarization of a membrane to trigger an action potential?

What is the main function of ion channels during action potentials?

Which ion primarily contributes to repolarization after an action potential?

What is the term for the period during which a neuron cannot generate another action potential?

The sodium-potassium pump helps maintain the resting potential by moving:

What type of potential results in a small, localized change in membrane voltage?
