Published	09/07/2023	the leak of {{c1::K+}} accounts for the resting membrane potential
Published	09/07/2023	Overall electrical neutrality is maintained because {{c1::Cl- ions}} provide the opposite charge to balance out {{c2::K+ ions}}
Published	09/07/2023	The Nernst Equation:{{c1::}}

Published	09/07/2023	At rest, the neuronal membrane is permeable to {{c1::K+}}, thus the resting membrane potential approaches {{c1::EK}}
Published	09/07/2023	During action potential, the neuronal membrane is highly permeable to {{c1::Na+}}, thus the membrane potential at the peak of an action potential…
