Question

Imagine you created a toxin such that when a neuron fired an action potential, the toxin would bind immediately to the sodium-potassium pump at the top of the action potential, but the sodium and potassium channels would still function. What process(es) would be affected

Answer 1

Answer:Maintaining resting potential and returning to resting potential after the hyperpolarization phase of an action potential

Explanation:TOXINS are chemical substances which are known to be POISONOUS produced with living organisms that causes harm to other organisms, examples include Venom from snakes which when a person is bitten by a Snake it will possibly lead to death if not adequate treated.

HYPERPOLARIZATION is a term that explains the change in membrane potential due to toxin,it make the membrane more electronegative. When the toxin has hyped the level of Sodium-Potassium level returning to a rest state will be most affected.
