What is Membrane Potential and Action Potential Explained about?

The document discusses membrane potentials, action potentials, and neuromuscular transmission. It covers: - The resting membrane potential is maintained by ion concentration gradients established by the sodium-potassium pump. Potassium diffuses out of cells more readily than sodium diffuses in, resulting in a negative interior charge. - An action potential occurs when the membrane potential rapidly switches from negative to positive and back again. This is driven by voltage-gated opening of sodium channels,
