Since the inside of each resting neuron in your brain has an electrical charge of about -60 to -70 millivolts at the axon compared to the outside of the cell, every neuron in your brain acts as a(n)
A)tiny biological battery.
B)chemical reactor.
C)ion channel booster.
D)electrical shock absorber.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neurons have a resting membrane potential of about -60 to -70 millivolts due to the difference in ion concentration inside and outside the cell, making them act like tiny biological batteries. This potential allows them to transmit electrical signals.
