| 1. | The higher the membrane potential the greater the probability of activation.
|
| 2. | It will fire a signal regardless of any membrane potential threshold.
|
| 3. | For instance, oxidants can activate uncoupling proteins that reduce membrane potential.
|
| 4. | The effect is loss of cellular membrane potential and eventually cell death.
|
| 5. | This increased chloride ion influx hyperpolarizes the neuron's membrane potential.
|
| 6. | This difference in charge is called the cell's membrane potential.
|
| 7. | This separation of charges is what causes the membrane potential.
|
| 8. | In neurons, the factors that influence the membrane potential are diverse.
|
| 9. | Calcium is essential for maintaining cardiac membrane potentials and in regulating coagulation.
|
| 10. | Neurons generate action potentials resulting from changes in the electric membrane potential.
