Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which statement is about resting membrane potential?
A
The charge on the membrane is -70 mV.
B
Sodium ligand gated channel terbuka.
C
Calcium voltage gated channel tertutup.
D
Sodium ions enter more than potassium exits.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Finally, several types of voltage-gated Cl-channel also have been identified (see Figure 4.4D). These channels are present in every type of neuron, where they control excitability, contribute to the resting membrane potential, and help regulate cell volume.

Detailed explanation-2: -Voltage-gated calcium (Cav) channels serve dual roles in the cell, where they can both depolarize the membrane potential for electrical excitability, and activate transient cytoplasmic Ca2+ signals.
