Neuron Resting Potential

To purchase this program please visit http://www.greatpacificmedia.com/

Segment from the program The Nervous System: Neurons, Networks, and the Human Brain.

Our Nervous System DVD begins by examining the structure and function of neurons; resting, action and post-synaptic potentials; and reflexes and neural networks. The peripheral, somatic, autonomic, sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are introduced before looking at the central nervous system. After describing spinal cord structure and function the program then examines the human brain including the medula, pons, and cerebellum of the hindbrain; the recticular formation of the midbrain; and the thalamus, limbic system and cerebral cortex of the forebrain.

These videos make me realize how bad my bio textbook is at explaining things like this :/

[BIODRHVCC]

There is no mention of the sodium leakage channels. And more importantly the sodium/potassium pump is not discussed at all. Overall this is a very poor and inaccurate description of the resting membrane potential

[LHCscienceguy]

Yes, the ATP driven pump I saw no reference here..

[blueiceadmiral]

Yeah, I thought the same thing

[Jon Anscombe]

sodium potassium pump?

[Daniel Hamer]

Well there is no need to talk about the pump as the pump is only used to shift phases; where this video only talks about one phase.

[RachelHayden3]

AGREE COMPLETELY with your thought here.... Not a good depiction at all

[Alan Rueda]

videos and images will enhance learning in the future and going to school will be no more!

[lakshmi8589]

Oh awesome!

[Marina K]

Thank you very much !

this is very good explanation .

[james patterson]

too bad im to smart for this and have created my own vid check out my channel Lifeaccordingtojimmy

[Erik Gomez]

wow, amazing explanation, thumps up!!!
