E)Change in water molecule concentration

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ligand binding, change in membrane potential, and stretching of the membrane are all known triggers for ion channels to open. Movement of solutes across the membrane and change in water molecule concentration are not typically associated with ion channel opening.
