What characterizes depolarization, the first phase of the action potential? The membrane potential changes to a less negative (b

ut not a positive) value. The membrane potential changes from a negative value to a positive value. The membrane potential reaches a threshold value and returns to the resting state. The membrane potential changes to a much more negative value.

Answer:

Option (2).

Explanation:

The cell potential or membrane potential may be defined as the difference in the electric potential between inside and outside of the cell. The membrane potential of the cell changes during the propagation of action potential.

The resting membrane potential is -70mV. The influx of sodium ions causes the depolarization of the cell membrane. The cell potential changes from -70mV to + 30mV. The membrane potential becomes more positive during the depolarization phase.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2).
