In a series of measurements of resting membrane potentials, the following values were recorded. Which oneis likeliest to be an error?
A) -10 mV
B) -20 mV
C) -40 mV
D) -70 mV
E) +100 mV

Question

Resting membrane potential is typically negative, ranging from -40 mV to -90 mV. Therefore, the value of +100 mV is not only outside of this normal range, but it is also positive which makes it the most unlikely to be a correct measurement.
