action potential 
The process by which excitable cells transmit information from one to another. 
 
 
How is the action potential altered by a potassium imbalance? (Hyperkalemia) 
The ECF has more K+ ions. The membrane potential becomes more positive (hypopolarized). 
Cells become MORE excitable. 
T waves peak. 
QRS complexes widen. 
Causes dysrhythmias, weakness, paresthesia. 
{If membrane potential becomes equal to threshold potential cardiac standstill occurs}...

Excitable CellsWhat is the charge of the resting membrane potential of all cells? Does the ICF or the ECF carry this charge? What is the average RMP value? Do most cells have an RMP that exists in a broad range or a narrow range? - correct answer All cells carry a negative resting membrane potential, and the ICF is negatively charged relative to the ECF. The average RMP value = -70mV. Most cells have an RMP that is small and w/in a narrow range. 
 
What types of cells are excitable cells? What i...

Ovarian cancer site of metastasis? 
Peritoneal surfaces, omentum (fold of peritoneum connecting the stomach with other abdominal organs), liver 
 
 
The increased NADH/NAD+ ratio in the liver from ethanol causes: 
1. Pyruvate --> lactic acid, causing lactic acidosis 
2. Oxaloacetate --> malate. This prevents gluconeogenesis and leads to hypoglycemia 
3. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate --> glycerol 3- phosphate and combines with fatty acids to form triglyce...

-	Cardiac dysrhythmias are abnormal rhythms of the hearts’ electrical system that can affect its ability to effectively pump oxygenated blood throughout the body 
-	When the heart does not work effectively as a pump, perfusion to vital organs and peripheral tissues can be impaired, resulting in organ dysfunction or failure 
-	Potential Causes: 
*	CAD 
*	Electrolyte imbalances 
*	Impair...

Question 1 
1 / 1 pts 
Which of these is not a characteristic of an action potential? 
 Each normal action potential for a given cell type looks identical, depolarizes to the same potential, and 
repolarizes back to the same resting potential. 
 An action potential at one site causes depolarization at adjacent sites, bringing those adjacent sites to 
threshold. 
 If an excitable cell is depolarized to threshold in a normal manner, then the occurrence of an action 
potential is inevitable. On the...
