Question

Which of the following is TRUE of the resting membrane potential? Potassium is more concentrated on the outside of the cell than the inside High levels of chloride and glycine makes the inside more than the outside The inside of the cell is more positive than the outside High levels of sodium ions makes the outside of the cell more positive than the inside Which of the following is NOT a function of the Nervous System? Sensing and detecting changes in stimuli Release of triglveerides during the stress response Inhibition and activation of effectors Integration or processing of information

Explanation / Answer

35 ) High level of chloride and glycine make the inside more negative than out side is the correct statement

Explanation

When a neuron is not sending a signal, it is "at rest." When a neuron is at rest, the inside of the neuron is negative relative to the outside. Although the concentrations of the different ions attempt to balance out on both sides of the membrane, they cannot because the cell membrane allows only some ions to pass through channels (ion channels). At rest, potassium ions (K+) can cross through the membrane easily. Also at rest, chloride ions (Cl-)and sodium ions (Na+) have a more difficult time crossing. The negatively charged protein and glycine molecules (A-) inside the neuron cannot cross the membrane.

36 ) Release of triglyserides during stress is not a function of Nervous system

As they triglyserides from cortisol activates the Central nervous system .
