What are the four main factors involved in the movement of ions across the cell membrane in the steady-state condition?
Solution
The four main factors are 1. Temperature ( increase in temperature makes membrane more permeable) 2. pH ( membrane is more permeable in optimum pH) 3.membrane potential (increase or decrease of the uptake of certain molecules or ions is dependent on membrane potential. It increases with increasing potential) 4. Number of the channels present in the membrane ( simply with the increase of number of channels more ions can pass through it)
