The Nernst Equation is: E = 60 mV log₁₀ ([X_{extracellular}/X_{intracellular}]).Given this,the equilibrium potential for a given ion would be increased with an increase in its intracellular concentration.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since in the Nernst Equation,the intracellular concentration is found in the denominator of a fraction,it follows that an INCREASE in this number would result in a DECREASE in the total

The Nernst Equation Is: E = 60 MV Log10 ([Xextracellular/Xintracellular])

The Nernst Equation Is: E = 60 MV Log₁₀ ([X_{extracellular}/X_{intracellular}])
