The diagram below shows the five main transport proteins that
control the distribution of Na+ and K+ ions across the plasma
membrane of an axon. Assume that the membrane is at resting
potential---the membrane potential of the axon remains constant at
about -70 mV. Drag the arrows onto the diagram to show the
direction of Na+ (gray arrows) and K+ (red arrows) movement through
each transport protein at resting potential. If no ions move
through a transport protein at resting...
After a fraction of a second, K+ voltage gated channels at the site of the original stimulus open. K+ is more concentrated (outside/inside) the cell; therefore, K+ diffused (in/out). This causes the inside of the membrane to become more negative and return to its resting potential of -70 mV. The process is known as (de/re) polarization. In fact, outflow of K+ may be so great that (de/re/hyper) polarization occurs in which membrane potential becomes closer to (-50, -90 ) mV....
(OHow does the relative permeability of the membrane to Na and K throughout the course of the action potential change compared with that at the resting membrane potential? From the following, select the statement(s) which are CORRECT: Select one or more: a. The number of potassium voltage-gated channels that open determine the amplitude of the action potential b. During the peak of an action potential, there is a 500x increase in the concentration of Na+ that move into the cell....
Lo 10: Electrochemical Gradient The difference in voltage across the membrane is called the __________________________________. The inside of a normal cell is ___________________ (+/-); while the outside is ___________(+/-). The resting membrane potential of a neuron is ___________mV. Diagram the relative ratios of Ca++, Na+ and K+ in a cell under resting conditions. Draw an arrow for each of the molecules indicating which direction would be passive transport (into or out of the cell). For each of the following sentences, fill in...
could you please explain how you did each one
5. Draw a graph showing what would happen to resting membrane potential over time, if the sodium/potassium pump were not functioning. How would this affect a neuron's ability to produce action potentials? What does this imply about the quantity of ions that normally cross the membrane during the course of an action potential? (Group D). Topic 2: Action potential conduction and synaptic transmission 6. How would you alter sodium and/or potassium...
1. The following statement is similar to those you might see on exams. Write a paragraph of 3-5 sentences describing 1) whether the statement is correct or incorrect and 2) the reasoning for your answer. Your answer should demonstrate your understanding of the physiological concepts underlying the statement and be written professionally. At a chemical synapse, the release of neurotransmitter occurs in response to a graded depolarization of the synaptic terminal. 2. Write a paragraph of 3-5 sentences answering the...
for each, what is the right answer?
B) iris 19. The Nernst Equation predicts that the equilibrium potential for an ion is proportional to where "in" means "inside the cell" and "out" means "outside the cell" (pick the answer that most closely matches the Nemst equation). A) log ([ion in x [ionout) B) bg ([on]out [onlin) C) log (ionin) D) bg (ion)in Vlog ([ion)out) E) log (ion)in) x log (ionout) 20. The eustachian tube connects the and the A) middle...
The right answer is (D)
Please explain. I don't understand how K+ could be effluxing rather
than influxing
Passage IV (Questions 114-117) Electrical impubses are transferred from one neuron to another via a synapse. Synapses can be electrical or chemical. In response to an electrical stimalus such as an action potential the presynaptic neuron in a chemical synapse releases a neuro- transmitner across a small space between the two neurons known as a symaptic cief. Neurotransmitiers may have excita- ory...
