Unmarked drugs are tested on neurons in order to identify them.The conditions of the neuron are that it is only permeable to K, Cland Na.
1. The first test depolarizes the resting membrane potentialfrom -70mV to -20mV. What are two reasons for this happening?
2. The second test on a new neuron, hyperpolarizes them -70mV to-90mv? What happened?
3. The last test resulted in no effect at first, then the Vmgoes to 0mV and remains there. Why does this happen?
