Question
In general, compare what happens when you add more K+ versus adding more Na+ to the outside of the cell: (select all that apply]
Both Na+ and K+ cause the Vm to depolarizes
Both Na+ and K+ cause the Vm to hyperpolarizes
Vm depolarizes much faster for increases in K+ then Na+
Vm hyperpolarizes much faster for increases in K+ then Na+
Vm depolarizes much faster for increases in Na+ then K+
Vm hyperpolarizes much faster for increases in Na+ then K+
Increases in external Na+ is far more problematic than increase in K+
Increases in external K+ is far more problematic than increase in Na+
Explanation / Answer
Increase in K+ over Na+ outside the cell has the following consequences,
