The Ionic mechanism and propagation of action potentials. The action potential is the result of a large‚ sudden increase in sodium permeability of the membrane. The resulting rush of sodium ions into the membrane and accumulation of positive charge on its inner surface drives the potential towards Ena. This is followed by repolarisation‚ whereby there is a large increase in the membranes permeability to potassium ions‚ hence the membrane returns to Ek. Explanation of the (ionic) mechanisms underlying

How did Newell try to create value? First of all‚ there are a lot of answers to that question. What strikes most is the high number of acquisitions undertaken by the Newell Company‚ which in the end let it become the single most important company in the business of housewares. The main effect were tremendous economies of scale and to a smaller amount economies of scope. Targeted firms all showed a big market share and helped ensuring Newell’s significant presence in the retailer’s shelf space

1. a. The action potential changes the membrane potential from -70 mV (resting) to +30 mV and back again to the resting membrane potential. b. This results from a change in membrane permeability first to Na then to K due to the opening of what type of ion channels? Voltage gated channels 2. a. Where is the density of voltage-gated Na+ channels the greatest? Axon hillock b. What areas of the neuron generate signals that open these voltage-gated channels? Dendrites and the cell body c.
