Title: Concentrated potassium ions injection into extracellular space of an animal!!
Post by: r101 on 17/10/2010 14:26:54
I am a first year vet student set an assignment to answer the following questions.....I have some ideas but would be grateful for any help!

1)Outline the gating mechanisma that control the conductances of the voltage-gated sodium and poassium channels

2)What would be the effect of an injection of a concentrated solution of potassium ions into the extracellular space of an animal??

THANKS :)
