In a single-ion system, reversal potential is synonymous with equilibrium potential; their numerical values are identical, and it:

1. Is a function of the concentration of that ion on the extracellular side of the membrane

2. Is a function of the concentration of that ion on the intracellular side of the membrane

3. Is the potential at which there is no movement of that ion across the membrane due to electrochemical forces

4. Is the potential at which there is equal movement of that ion into and out of the cell across the membrane due to electrochemical forces

Hints

The resting membrane potential is first established because of:
1. the movement of potassium ions down their electrical gradient through leak channels
2. the opening of voltage-gated sodium channels
3. the action of the Na+/K+ ATPase pump which transports positive ions in unequal numbers
4. the movement of sodium ions against their concentration gradient through leak channels

What is true for the events that occur during the generation of an action potential?
1. Potassium channels in the membrane open in response to depolarization
2. Sodium channels in the membrane open in response to neurotransmitter released from the adjacent membrane
3. The increase in sodium permeability in the membrane is an example of positive feedback
4. The movement of sodium into the neuron causes the cell to hyperpolarize
