The Potassium Equilibrium Potential Is Reached When the Diffusion of K⁺

Multiple Choice

The potassium equilibrium potential is reached when the diffusion of K⁺ out of the cell due to the concentration gradient is balanced by the movement of K⁺ into the cell due to the negative electric potential.This potassium equilibrium potential

A) is always equivalent to the membrane potential.
B) requires the activity of voltage-gated ion channels.
C) is due to electrochemical gradients.
D) is equivalent to the resting potential.
E) was discovered through patch clamping.
