  • i do have a question..can you explain about voltage gated slow ca+ channel during repolarization happen..is that also known as plateau phase?

  • @28mydecember12 That's in Cardiac muscle contraction. Check out my video entitled Action Potentials and Contraction in Cardiac Muscle Cells

  • I should really say this, you are just too amazing!! I have my exam due coming tuesday, and your help was just at the right time!! THANKS A LOT!!

    Something that I don't understand is why do college professor don't find videos like this so they could improve their performance in the class!! 

  • @punkvijay224 Thank you! We hope you'll ace your test. Good luck!

  • This is probably the most helpful YouTube channel I have found--universities and colleges should model the way that Leslie teaches and incorporate it into their own teaching! amazing!

  • @mihae Thank you, thank you so much! Please stay tuned for more!

see all

  • this guy is super cute and his voice is sexy...this is such an awesome tutorial.

  • thanks very helpfull video

  • Is the difference between "membrane potential" & "action potential" the threshold?

  • this is a great video

  • thanks for making science fun

  • @InteractiveBiology Great explanation but what I don't understand is if 2 K+ ions get in the cel and 3 Na+ ions out of the cell, this means that you have a charge of 1 + ( the 1 Na+ ion that goes) that leaves the cell, shouldn't this mean that there is no hyperpolarization but that the potential even goes lower as a positive charge leaves the cell (netto charge)

  • This was one of the most informative and easy to understand videos I've seen on this complex topic. Thank you so much. The combination of your ability to articulate exactly what's going on inside of a cell during this process and your visual aids was PERFECT! Thank you so much.

  • Thank you so much!!!

  • Thankyou, soo much! i was stuck and after watching your video it all made sense! thanks dude!
