0 Activity 1‚ the simulation showed you how the resting membrane potential depends on the concentration of K+ and Na+ in the ECF. Some data were generated while measuring the resting membrane potential using a microelectrode that was positions alternatively in the ECF and the ICF. You recorded the data in Chart 1 on page 35. Use the data to produce a Graph that will clearly show how the effects ion the resting membrane potential when the ECF concentration of K+ is high and when the ECF concentration

Nervous System I: Ion Channels 1. What structures in the cell membrane function as ion channels? Integral Proteins 2. Ion channels are selective for specific ions. What three characteristics of the ions are important for this selectivity? 1. Charge 2. Size 3. Amount of water the ion attracts 3. Channels can be classified as either gated or nongated channels. A sodium channel that is always open would be classified as a/an __________nongated______________ channel. 4. Would sodium ions

K+ gradient across the membrane is reduced. This results in depolarization where cells generate an action potential. Voltage-gated Na+ channels open in response to depolarization and close by inactivation for a refractory period and remain closed until repolarization. In this new setting‚ less K+ leaks out of the intracellular space and the cell is unable to return to its resting membrane potential (ie. The cell stays slightly depolarized) as the voltage-gated Na+ channels have closed. This means

The Effects of Temperature on the Extracellular Firing Rate of Action Potentials in the Ventral Nerve Cord of the Periplaneta Americana Andrew Goldsmith (andrew.goldsmith@uconn.edu)‚ Tuesdays 1-4PM Section: 2 (Partner: Ana Charalambides) Abstract In polikiotherms it is known that the amount of locomotion varies based on the environmental temperature. We believe that this is caused by differences in the neural activity. We therefore investigated how temperature changes affect the extracellular

to and/or from the CNS and visceral organs or structures of the body periphery (Marieb & Mitchell‚ 2009). In this experiment we will work with a nerve The action potential we will see on this experiment reflects the cumulative action potentials of all the neurons in the nerve‚ called a compound nerve action potential. Although an action potential follows the all-or none law within a single neuron‚ it does not necessarily follows the all-or-none law within an entire nerve. When you electrically stimulate
