Answer:
-35 mV and +56 mV
Explanation:
The membrane potential is the energy that is needed to drive membrane changes across the phospholipid bi-layer membrane.
Ions can move in and out of the cell through protein channels. The movement of the ions is as a result of concentration that affect the operation of ion gates.
The reverse potential is given by the Nernst equation:
[tex]E_{ion} = \frac{RT}{zF} ln\frac{ion_{outside} }{ion_{inside} }[/tex]
where, R = gas constant
T = temperature (Kelvin)
z = ion charge
F = Faraday's charge
The potential is calculated and the result is -35 mV and +56 mV respectively.
