At the equilibrium potential for K⁺, the concentration and electrical gradients for K⁺ are in opposition to each other and exactly balance each other so there is no net movement of K⁺.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This statement accurately describes the concept of equilibrium potential, which is the point at which there is no net movement of ions across the cell membrane because the electrical and concentration gradients are exactly balanced.
