Question

The ________ is the difference in charge between the intracellular and extracellular space of a neuron.

Answer 1

The answer to filling in the missing parts of the question is the membrane potential.

Further explanation

The potential membrane is the difference in electrical potential between the outer wall and the inner wall of the cell membrane whose size is approximately between -50 to -200 millivolts.

There are action potentials in the membrane including:

Polarization Stage

It is a resting membrane potential stage before an action potential exists. On a negative membrane of -900 mV.  

Depolarization Stage

If the resting cell is given a level of stimulation, the cell will change to an active state. In the active state of the cell membrane potential changes from negative to positive on the inside. This condition is called depolarization. This event starts from one point on the membrane surface and will propagate throughout the membrane surface. At this stage, the membrane is very permeable and is very reactive to Na + ions so that Na + channels open so that Na + will enter into it so that the membrane potential increases so overshoot occurs if the potential is above 0.

Repolarization Stage

In the state of repolarization, the membrane potential changes from positive on the inside to back to negative on the inside. The repolarization stage begins at a point and propagates throughout the surface of the cell membrane.

Hyperpolarization Stage

If repolarization is excessive, the membrane potential state is below the normal value so that the Na + and K + ions return to normal and the membrane has finished transporting the substance.

Answer 2

The answer to this question would be: membrane potential

Membrane potential of a cell is determined by the difference in the concentration of their ion. The resting potential of the membrane should be around -70mVNatrium/sodium and chlor will be much more outside cells than inside cells, but kalium/potassium will be much higher inside the cells.
