What Do We Call a Membrane Potential in Which There

Question

What do we call a membrane potential in which there is no net movement of an ion across a membrane?
A) a graded potential
B) a threshold potential
C) an equilibrium potential
D) an action potential

Accepted Answer

An equilibrium potential is the membrane potential at which there is no net movement of a specific ion across the membrane because the electrical and concentration gradients are balanced.
