Question

Nerve cells are the only cells with a resting membrane potential.
(a) True
(b) False

Answer 1

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

The membrane potential may be defined as the difference in the electric potential of the cell between the outside and inside environment. The unequal distribution of ions is responsible for membrane potential.

Different cells that carries the resting membrane potential are nerve cell, muscles cell and many more. The resting membrane potential of nerve cell is -70mV.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).
