2. Considering the nervous system‚ please briefly explain how the electrically excitable membrane changes its electric potential. In other words‚ how is the cell membrane excited? At the surface of the cell membrane‚ there are three classes of gated channels exist‚ chemically gated or ligand-gated channels‚ voltage-gated channels‚ and mechanically gated channels. Originally‚ at the resting membrane potential‚ most of the gated channels are closed. However‚ when these gated channels open‚ the movement
