Answer:

1. Potassium

2. increasing towards zero

3. hyperpolarization

4. voltage-regulated Potassium

Explanation:

Membrane potential can be defined as the difference in electric charges inside and outside of a cell. The resting membrane potential (RMP) occurs when there is no net current across the membrane and therefore the cell is in a non-excited state. At the RMP, sodium ions (Na+) are more concentrated inside the extracellular fluid (ECF) than inside the intracellular fluid (ICF), while potassium ions (K+)  are more concentrated inside the ICF. The diffusion of K+ outside the cell triggers its hyperpolarization, by becoming the membrane potential more negative compared to the resting potential. As the potential nears +35 mV, the voltage-regulated potassium channels are open, thereby K+ ions leave the cell down its concentration gradient, while voltage-gated Na+ channels become saturated and inactivate.

What is Potential energy at its highest?
mylen [45]
Conservation of Energy:
As a projectile is launched into the air KE is at its maximum. As the projectile gains altitude PE becomes greater than KE. At the top of its arc, PE is at its maximum. The whole cycle reverses itself on the way down.
