What is an action potential? To put it simply‚ it is a message that is sent down the nervous line. The message is written and is sent from the central nervous system. That message is addressed to muscles or glands. This essay will explain what happens before‚ during‚ and after an interneuron action potential. To accurately define an action potential‚ it is part of the incredible course of events that occur during the firing of a neuron. When a neuron is not firing signals‚ the interior of the

Resting potential is created by a transport protein called the sodium-potassium pump. Resting potential occurs when ions are distributed unequally on the inside and outside of cells‚ and when cell membranes are selectively permeable to different ions. K+ is particularly important for the resting potential. The membrane is highly permeable to K+. In addition‚ the inside of the cell has a high concentration of K+ and the outside of the cell has a low concentration of K+. K+ will naturally diffuse
