Explanation: Membrane potential is the difference in charge distribution or electrical potential across the membrane of a cell.
Resting membrane potential is the membrane potential when the cell is not receiving any excitatory or inhibitory signal, it is the membrane potential when a cell is at rest. Depolarization means that the cell is less negative, that is, there is less negative ions on the inside of the cell than on the outside while hyperpolarization means that the cell is more negative or less positive, that is, there is more negative ions on the inside of the cell than on the outside of the cell.
At resting potential (absence of stimulus), the cell membrane of a neuron is said to be polarized with a net negative charge within due to more potassium (K+) ions present than sodium (Na+) ions.
However, an impressed stimuli reverses the ions content as K+ ions flows out and quickly replaced by Na+ ions, resulting in a decrease in membrane potential and a more positive cell membrane. Thus, depolarization occurs.
An increase in the membrane potential (so that it becomes more negative) is called hyperpolarization.
Up to the the population carrying capacity the the population will increase to give a perfect balance and when the population will be much then the population will decrease.
Los organismos unicelulares se componen de una sola célula que lleva a cabo todas las funciones necesarias por el organismo, mientras que los organismos multicelulares utilizan muchas células diferentes para funcionar.
