Title: Chapter 45.02.02 Instructor Animation
Caption: Action Potential Depolarization: The wave of depolarization caused by an action potential is shown graphically using animated ions and a voltmeter graph. Depolarization is shown to be a function of the voltage-gated channels for sodium and potassium. The sodium-potassium pump is credited for reestablishing the resting potential. This is a nice animation to use in teaching this fairly complex process. Run time: 2:10
