What is a Typical Resting Potential for Neurons

Question

What is a typical resting potential for neurons?
A) +30 mV
B) +15 mV
C) -55 mV
D) -70 mV

Accepted Answer

The typical resting potential for neurons is around -70 mV, which is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump and the differential permeability of the neuronal membrane to ions.
