Connell's famous barnacle experiment was initiated to learn more about competitive exclusion and distribution of branacle species. Barnacle species are distributed in distinct zones on the rocky shores of the Atlantic coast. The Chthamalus in upper intertidal zone; is a smaller species and the semibalanus in low intertidal zone which is a larger species. Chthamalus found in the higher physical stress and higher temperatures because the low tide levels causes them to be exposed to the extreme outside environment for longer periods of time than the semibalanus. Additionally barnacles can only feed while submerged and the higher up shore a barnacle is, the less it can feed and grow. The experiment wanted to understand why they lived this way.
1. The study of all life or living matter.
2. The living organisms of a particular region.
3. The structure, function, and behavior of an organism or type of organism.

Explanation:
Action potential can be split into 5 phases (0-4), where phase 4 leads from one action potential to the next. Phase 0 is the line up and is known as depolarization, it is here where the action potential is triggered and fast Na channels will open. Next, is phase 1 called early repolarization which is the little bit at the beginning of the plateau-here the Na channels will close. Then you have the plateau phase where Ca channels are open at the beginning and close at the end. Then is phase 3 called repolarization which is the big slope down and here is where the normal transmembrane ionic concentration gradients are restored. Finally, phase 4 which is the resting phase occurs. There are many resources online if you need more details, here is a pretty good one: http://www.pathophys.org/physiology-of-cardiac-conduction-and-contractility/
