Universities just need an excuse to keep students in the classroom longer and make them feel as if they ‘need’ all this information and need to pay for ridiculous tuition in order to be successful…

Memorizing words and phrases without understanding them is why kids forget half the stuff they needed just to pass a test.

this 13 min video covered this content way better than my professor's 40 minute video

If anyone is wondering, there are things called leaky K+ gates that always allow a little bit of K+ ion movement across the membrane. This is how the resting potential is restored after hyperpolarisation (when it goes to negative). Because it's so negative inside the cell (below the resting potential of -70mV) K+ ions will move into the cell because of the electrical gradient, sodium ions can't their gates are shut. This movement of K+ ions into the cell makes it more positive and restores the resting potential. The sodium potassium ion pumps do help a little to maintain the electrical gradient, but mostly they keep the chemical gradient (Na+ in high concentration outside, K+ high conc. inside) with the leaky K+ (how many / how leaky they are) determining the electrical gradient and therefore the resting potential.

@booyah9402

9 ай бұрын

Sorry, can you explain this better? I am not understanding how the potential is restored again after hyperpolarization. If 3 sodiums and 2 potassiums pass through, wouldn't the cell be losing 1 negative ion all the time, making it even more negative?

@mikeish6640

@@booyah9402 losing a net of one positive ion and making it more negative yes. The K+ gates "leak" a little bit. These gates are not the ion channels pumping the 3Na+ / 2K+, they are gates not channels. They stop most the K+ ions moving when shut, but a few still get past even when shut. When the cell becomes very negative on the inside the electrical difference (the potential difference across the cell membrane) is large enough so K+ ions are forced back into the cell through the K+ ion channels. This is moving from low conc. of K+ ions on the outside to high on the inside, so is moving against the concentration gradient and how diffusion would work, but the electrical difference is so big it pushes positive K+ ions into the cell to restore the electrical gradient. NA+ ions can not be pushed into the cell as their gates do not "leak". Did that help?

​​@@booyah9402actually 3 factors contribute to RMP: 1.Na+/k+ pumps. 2.leaky k+ channels 3.leaky Na+ channels U must know permeability of k+ is much more than Na+ because of the presence of large amount of k+ channels than Na+ channels on membrane (approx. In the ratio of 100:1) As a result the cell membranes is significantly more permeable to k+ than to Na+.

Thank you. I was confused by the last part of the video where it says pumping 3 sodium out and 2 potassium in restores the cell from hyperpolarized state to resting potential. I think that last part is a bit misleading since the pump always makes the cell more negative.

I wish my A and P teacher would just show this video. its so helpful

My professor couldn't make this make sense for the entire two semesters I had him. This one video explained it all to me in just 13:11. Thank you.

Literally my teacher explained this concept in the worst way possible 😐 thanks to this video

Thank you so much! This video is just what I need, it’s clear and to the point.

I’m on page 4 of notes! I can’t believe how much this video is helping me understand what I believe is going to be a large topic on my midterm for an SFSU psychology course titled “Perception.” I’ve been struggling to conceptualize brain structures and brain activity that is now included in my courses. I’ve never seen any of it before and have had to slowly teach myself through videos like this when, even after re-reading the dense textbook, I still struggle to keep it all clear. As a very passionate psych undergrad who has never had to take chemistry or any class past intermediate biology, this video made me feel like I really missed out on appreciating science classes more because now that it was explained in a way I can understand, it blew my freakin mind. God I love learning.

It all finally makes sense! This video is brilliant in its simplicity and cuts out all the fluff that made it complicated!

Excellent Video! Thank you for speaking slowly and clearly. Very helpful!

this is THE BEST action potential video out there!!! I've been struggling for ages and this video coverseverything in such a comprehensive and easy to understand manner. THANK YOU!

Thank you for making your work available to all. I really enjoy your excellent presentations.

As a first year neuroscience student, my lectures on the introduction to this topic was covered over 3 hours and was very confusing to understand. This managed to keep the level of detail needed whilst keeping it simple and also under 15 mins... Thank you so much, this really helped.

mind blown i've been struggling with this concept all semester and it was explained in less than 15 minutes

I am 14 and obsessed with a level psychology: This video was very useful, particularly for clarification and being clear and concise! For anybody confused: Basically the dendrites are decorated with synapses, which don't quite touch the next axel, but have literally less than 1 millionth of an inch between them. The dendrites decide whether to pass the stimulation on, and if yes, then the process begins. The stimulation is passed through the cell membrane (soma), through the axel (which is often covered in a layer of protective fat called the myelin sheath) where the action potential then reaches the axel terminal, and the action potential "jumps" across the synaptic gap and into there receptor sites (like a key fitting into a lock).
