For an axon at resting membrane potential, the K⁺ leak channel is _______, the voltage-gated Na⁺ channel is _______, and the voltage-gated K⁺ channel is _______.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

At resting membrane potential, K+ leak channels are open, allowing K+ to move across the membrane. Voltage-gated Na+ channels are closed, and voltage-gated K+ channels are also closed, as they only open in response to changes in membrane potential during an action potential.
