The membrane potential is restored to resting state after hyperpolarization via ion transport
Is it true that the membrane potential is restored to resting state after hyperpolarization via ion transport?
Restoration of the resting membrane potential following hyperpolarization is a fundamental physiological concept governed by ion transport and channel dynamics, requiring no external citation.
Verdict: COMMON KNOWLEDGE · 0 sources for, 0 against · Last checked
The claim states that the membrane potential is restored to its resting state after hyperpolarization via ion transport. This is a foundational, well-established principle of cellular electrophysiology (involving mechanisms like the Na+/K+-ATPase pump and ion permeabilities) that qualifies as common knowledge, requiring no specific literature citation.
