Q5.8. In a neuron with a Vm of 0, there is a high concentration of K* inside of the cell and a low concentration outside. Which statement below is TRUE? If K* channels were open and the electrical forces were absent, diffusion would result in a net movement of K* out of the cell. If K+ channels were closed, Na* would flow into the neuron. If K* channels were open and the effect of diffusion was absent, the electrical forces would move K+ out of the cell. The membrane potential would be at the K* equilibrium potential, because concentrations of K+ are not balanced. Submit
