During neuronal signaling a change in membrane potential wil

During neuronal signaling, a change in membrane potential will casuse sodium channels to open and let Na+ ions diffuse down their concentration gradient into the cell. Which of the following helps establish the concentration gradient necessary for this process to occur? Why?

Solution

Active transport by sodium potassium pump maintains this gradient , it moves 2 sodium out of the cells and 3pottassium inside the cell against concentration gradient by utilising ATP .

Hope it helps ... Feel free to discuss .. I shall be glad to help you .... Regards
