Question

A nerve impulse is an electrical charge running across a neuron. Explain why the simulation supports this explanation.

Answer 1

Stimulation of a neuron causes a change in the charge inside the cell from negative to positive. This change is caused by ions, which are atoms with an electrical charge, moving across the cell. This change within the cell is consistent with the definition of an electric charge.

Explanation: PLATO ANSWER

Answer 2

Sudden reversal of the electrical charge across the membrane of resting neuron
