A)ligand- gated channel
B)leakage channel
C)mechanically gated channel
D)voltage- gated channel

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Voltage-gated channels open in response to a change in membrane potential, such as the depolarization that occurs during an action potential. They play a critical role in the generation and conduction of action potentials in neurons and other electrically excitable cells.
