Action Potential Physiology (FULL VIDEO)

The video explains the action potential in neurons, focusing on the role of the axon, sodium-potassium pump, and ion channels. It describes how action potentials propagate along the axon, the function of sodium and potassium channels, and the phases of depolarization and repolarization. A graphical representation of these processes is also provided.

What is the role of neurotransmitters in the synapse following an action potential?

Discuss the sequence of events that occur during the repolarization phase of an action potential.

What is hyperpolarization and how does it occur after an action potential?

Explain the importance of the sodium-potassium pump in the context of action potentials.
