The variation of the electrical potential associated with the passage of a pulse along the membrane of a muscle cell or a nerve cell is called __________(a) muscle potential(b) action potential(c) resting potential(d) half cell potential |
|
Answer» Correct option is (b) action potential Explanation: An action potential occurs when the potential of the membrane of a given axonal position increases and decreases rapidly. This depolarization causes depolarization of adjacent positions in a similar way. Resting membrane potential or the resting potential is the relative static membrane potential of a quiescent cell. |
