if an object b has a plasma sodium concentration of 135mOsm/L and an intracellular concentration of 4mOsm/L. It also has a plasma concentration of potassium of 20mOsm/L and an intracellular concentration of 200mOsm/L. studies identify that the cells have a permeability to potassium that is 10 times greater than sodium. What is the resting membrane potential
There are differences in Na+, K+, and Cl- ion concentrations across the membrane. Knowing that ions like to flow down their respective concentration gradients explain how the movement of Cl- and K+ ions can result in membrane hyperpolarization.
What type of ion channel contributes to the restingmembrane potential? Describe the permeabilitycharacteristics of the plasma membrane.
