ACTION POTENTIALS
Stimulus -
This excited then neurone which makes the Na+ ion channels open -> membrane becomes more permeable so they diffuse in down their electrochemical gradient. {Now its less negative inside the membrane} (-70mv).
Depolarisation -
Of the threshold is reached the voltage gates Na+ ion channels will open allowing more Na+ ions in -> known as positive feedback (-55mv).
Repolarisation -
At -30mv the…
