<u>Answer:</u>

The typical state of a neuron is the<u> resting potential</u>, but when electrical signals stimulate it to its threshold, the <u>action potential</u> is immediately observed.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The capacity for rest shows what occurs when a neuron is at rest. A capacity for action takes place when a neuron passes information down an axon, far from the cell body. When depolarization exceeds approximately -55 mV a neuron can activate the capacity for action.

Sodium-potassium valves start moving two potassium ions within the cell as three sodium ions are poured out to keep the negatively charged membrane within the cell; this keeps the resting potential in place.

How are a black hole and a neutron star similar and different?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Both black holes and neutron stars are corpses of stars that died in catastrophic explosions known as supernovas, outbursts that can make a star briefly outshine all of the other stars in its galaxy. When a star goes supernova, the core of its remains collapses under the strength of its own gravitational pull.
