diffuse out across the membrane. My results went well compared to my prediction because I predicted that the resting membrane potential would become less negative. 3. The extracellular Na+ did not alter the membrane potential in the resting neuron because the Na+ channels were mostly closed. 4. Na+ and K+ both have a relative permeability of 0 voltage outside a resting neuron and a relative negative permeability inside a resting neuron. 5. A change in Na+ or K+ conductance would affect the resting membrane

Activity 1: Electrical Stimulation 1. Do you see any kind of response on the oscilloscope screen? NO 2. What was the threshold voltage‚ or the voltage at which you first saw an action potential? 3.0 V 3. How does this tracing compare to the one that was generated at the threshold voltage? The tracing travel in the same fashion but the tracing were different with an increase threshold voltage 4. What reason can you give for the change? Increase voltage 5. Record this maximal voltage here:

Exercise 2: Skeletal Muscle Physiology: Activity 2: The Effect of Stimulus Voltage on Skeletal Muscle Contraction Lab Report Pre-lab Quiz 1. Skeletal muscle fibers are innervated (stimulated) by c. motor neurons. 2. A single action potential propagating down a motor axon results in d. a single action potential and a single contractile event in the muscle fibers it innervates. 3. In resting skeletal muscle‚ calcium is stored in c. the sarcoplasmic reticulum. 4. During the latent period

increased the glomerular filtration rate. 2. Under these conditions‚ does the fluid flow through the nephron? >>No! No urine was collected which indicates no fluid flows through the nephron. 3. What is the glomerular filtration rate? >>The glomerular filtration rate is 0 which means the glomeruli are not carrying out any filtration task. 4. How does it compare to your baseline data‚ and why? >>The glomerular filtration rate in baseline data is 124.99 which

becoming more negative or positive and reaches a certain point called a threshold. When the threshold is reached‚ an action potential is initiated. 2. What was the threshold voltage in Activity 1? The threshold voltage in Activity 1 was 3.0. 3. What was the effect of increasing the voltage? How does this change correlate to changes in the nerve? There was little change in effect of increasing the voltage. The action potential increased slightly. There was a small increase in the repolarization
