Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a neuron is not receiving any input or information, it is said to be at its resting potential. This is the state in which the neuron is not actively sending or receiving messages and is essentially "at rest." This resting potential is maintained by the balance of ions (charged particles) inside and outside of the neuron's cell membrane.
