After the depolarization phase of an action potential, the resting potential is restored by _______. A. the opening of voltage-gated potassium channels and the inactivation of sodium channels B. a decrease in the membrane's permeability to potassium and chloride ions C. a brief inhibition of the sodium-potassium pump D. the opening of more voltage-gated sodium channels

Respuesta :

After depolarization phase of an action potential, the resting membrane potential is restored by  A . The opening of voltage-gated potassium channels and the inactivation of sodium channels

After the depolarization of resting membrane potential is completed, and the membrane becomes depolarized, the membrane again comes back to its initial resting membrane potential which is done as after a brief period of time, the sodium channels self-inactivate (close and stop responding to voltage), halting the sodium influx.

The opening of a group of voltage-gated potassium channels lets potassium stream out of the cell via its electrochemical gradient. These occurrences swiftly reduce the membrane potential, returning it to its regular resting state.
