Membrane Potential
Neurons – Electrical Charge called membrane potential
Na-K Pump
-
Specialized transport protein in cell membranes
-
Ions: Charged Particles Na+ has missing electron
-
Ion+Protien -> Changes shape of protein

Membrane Potential
Resting Potential
Post-Synaptic Potential
Action Potential
Resting Phase (-70 mV)
Stable negative charge of inactive neuron

All or Nothing Law
-
Axon either produces action potential or it does not
-
For action potential – Threshold must be reached
-
If not, neuron will not fire
-
Similar to firing of GUN
-
After firing, cannot fire or 1 to 2 millisecond – Absolute Refractory Period
-
Then Relative Refractory Period - Neuron will fire only if stimulus is too strong
