NEET PG DENTAL EXAM

Detailed explanation-1: -A neuron at rest is negatively charged: the inside of a cell is approximately 70 millivolts more negative than the outside (−70 mV, note that this number varies by neuron type and by species).

Detailed explanation-2: -A resting neuron is polarized at a membrane potential of-70mV, with greater negative charge inside. When there is a change in the membrane potential with the inside becoming more positive, the neuron is depolarized.

Detailed explanation-3: -Resting membrane potential of a neuron is about-70mV which means that the inside of the neuron is 70mV less than the outside. There are more k and less NA+ inside and more NA+ and less K+ outside.
