Question

? Part G - Conclusion/Synthesis: Resting Membrane Potential, Part II Cl? is a common, negatively charged extracellular ion. Predict the effect on the RMP if many Cl? gated channels are suddenly opened. ? View Available Hint(s) The RMP would become more positive. The membrane would become hypopolarized or have less charge separation across the membrane. There would be no change in the RMP. A more negative RMP would result.
