Which of the following statements about neurons are NOT true?

Multiple Choice
A. The resting membrane potential is generally in the range of -40 mv to -75 mv.
B. Maintaining resting membrane potential requires the use of energy from ATP.
C. Neurons repolarize by opening chloride channels on the membrane.
D. An action potential can occur when the neuron's sodium gates open.

The correct answers to the question are

The following statements about neurons are NOT true

A. The resting membrane potential is generally in the range of -40 mv to -75 mv.

C. Neurons repolarize by opening chloride channels on the membrane.

D. An action potential can occur when the neuron's sodium gates open.

Explanation:

A. The resting membrane potential is generally in the range of -40 mv to -75 mv.

Not true the resting potential for neurons range from -70 to -80 mv

B. Maintaining resting membrane potential requires the use of energy from ATP True

The potential of the membrane arises from the splitting of potassium ions from the intracellular anions by agents powered by ATP

C. Neurons repolarize by opening chloride channels on the membrane

Not True

Repolarization occurs by the outward transit of the positively charged K⁺ from the cell

D. An action potential can occur when the neuron's sodium gates open.

Not True

An action potential takes place once the neuron transmits information along an axon. An action potential results when different ions pass through the membrane of the neuron
