    POTASSIUM. POTASSIUM. POTASSIUM 9:02 9:41 9:43 10:08 10:18 10:23 not sodium

    Despite getting a little confused with the mix up with potassium-sodium, and sodium-phosphate... I found this video so HELPFUL! It was quite simplified and easy to follow. Thank you for your help.

  • @heatherdahlin4737
    @heatherdahlin4737 Před 9 lety +34

    You mix up your solutes many times. First you say that you pump out 3 phosphorus when you meant sodium and then you say you pump in sodium when you meant potassium. Otherwise, really appreciate the video.

    I'm learning more on CZcams than in school for 2 reasons: 1) Visualization of information in an entertaining manner; and 2) Predisposition to learn (I choose what I'm interested in learning). This is the future of education.

    @MrTRANnysaurus Před 10 lety +26

    07:25 Instead of "phosphate groups" it should actually be Na+ that gets pumped to the outside.

    You are the best! Finally someone who can make sense of physiology and make it understandable. If professors cared enough to teach like you do there wouldn't be a pass or fail. It would be a passed the class only scenario. Thank you. I will be following all of your videos and telling all of my friends and family where they can go for clarity. Thank you. 1,000 times thank you.

    These videos are all truly great, but this is the second one in which you have said "sodium" when you actually meant "potassium." Please be more careful!

  • @WispNL
    @WispNL Před 11 lety

    I agree, but for specific reasons. Although a good teacher will explain this equally well, CZcams has these benefits: 1) you follow the explanation at a time of your own choosing, 2) there's less to no interference by classmates, 3) you can pause, repeat at will.

  • @MitchumJay
    @MitchumJay Před 9 lety

    Thanks! the videos I was watching showed repolarization as only K flowing outside the membrane, bud didn't explain how the k returned inside to polarize the cell again. It's the Na/K pump!

  • @olgaperez6604
    @olgaperez6604 Před 5 lety +1

    He said sodium instead of potassium and since i hardly understand this i was going to lose my mind until i read the comments

  • @paulinaduarteable
    @paulinaduarteable Před 9 lety

    Hi! Can you describe a simple experiment, explaining the contribution of the pump to the membrane potential?

  • @MakeMEEuP
    @MakeMEEuP Před 12 lety

    yes, he said anywhere along the neuron that isnt mylinated. So yes you would find it on axon (nodes)

  • @IamChandEvil
    @IamChandEvil Před 14 lety

    yup, its sodium ions that are released outside the cell, and the phosphate is released inside the cell simultaneously =P

  • @EDhynh0
    @EDhynh0 Před 13 lety

    @127miles - Yes, there is: Neurosciences. You can graduate in Medicine and then specialize in Neurosciences (like António Damásio did) or you can graduate in Biochemistry and then graduate in Psychology and then you'll be able to study Neurosciences. Actually if you take that second option, you'll understand more of the way the brain works molecularly (bcuz of Biochem) and you'll also understand better the human mind (bcuz of Psychology). My advice is: second option ;)

  • @remedytheband
    @remedytheband Před 11 lety

    Look up Synapses, I think that should give you the general idea. Basically the action potential opens Calcium channels and this leads to Neurotransmitter (or even Hormones maybe?) being released outside the Neurone, converting the Electrical Signal into a Chemical Signal.

  • @alissabrougham7440
    @alissabrougham7440 Před 10 lety

    First of, thank you for all the awesome videos! I had a question though, it resting potential -70mv or is it 90mv, or is it between the two?

  • @cherylpops2719
    @cherylpops2719 Před 8 lety +13

    too many mix ups.

  • @SWIFTzTrigger
    @SWIFTzTrigger Před 13 lety

    actually in its resting state the potential difference is -100mV (resting membrane potential) this is Veq, or equilibrium voltage, it goes to -70mV when the AP passes this is its driving force (therefore 30mV is the driving force of the AP)

  • @hedonism13
    @hedonism13 Před 13 lety

    Everytime he says "cell", I hear it as "Sal".

  • @BigEdJon
    @BigEdJon Před 11 lety

    The Na would be constantly moving around (kinetics) so at some point the Na will combine with the receptor sites. Also the inside of the cell is also positive so the Na ions would still repel even if the inside of the cell is less positive. At least that is my thought/explanation

  • @LeanneJenZiegler

  • @artanshkoza6741
    @artanshkoza6741 Před 9 lety +1

    if you say that the main reason of negative resting potential is the high resting permeability of K+, what happens when K+ in the blood goes high? As I know, the K+ might even enter the cell but it (the cell) becomes less positive, but still remains negative, for example at - 60 or - 55 mV. how to explain this negativity in this case?

    Would this be classified as resting potential?

  • @Stonymypony
    @Stonymypony Před 11 lety

    So the signal is received at the dendrite right? Does this electrical potential gradient exist from the tip of the dendrites, through the soma (cell membrane), down the axon and to the axon terminals? I thought that the gradient only existed on the axon and the signal traveled down the axon when the signal gets to the axon hillock. Maybe I am missing something...can someone help?
