What happens to an action potential if a chemical were to block the opening of the K channels?
Q. Would the membrane just hyperpolarize much more slowly because of the action of the Na/K pumps? or would it stay depolarized?

How is the law applicable for filing a civil action against an agency in another state?
Q. If a person has a contract with an agency in California and the contractor's residence and place of work is in Washington state, can the contractor file a civil action against the agency in Washington? It is good to say that in the contract itself indicates "the agreement is executed in California and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the state law". But civil action is not about the contract itself, it is about some extra promises and expenses that just were exchanged by Emails and verbal words. Overall, do I need to go to California to pursue the matter or just in Washington state I can initiate the class action?

A. I believe it depends on what you are suing for. If this is an EEOC issue, just call your local EEOC office. Who else is involved in the class action? Class action suits can often be filed in a different jurisdiction. Disputes between people from different states are normally heard by federal level courts. Since the contract contains the words "the agreement is executed in California," you may be bound by California law so consult an attorney.

What part of the action potential prevents summation of cardiac muscle cells contraction?
Q. What part(s) of the action potential prevent summation of the contraction of cardiac muscle cells? And what is the ionic mechanism that gives rise to this? Is it phase 2 of the action potential? And is that because of calcium comming into the cell? I need to know the ionic mechanism behind this too?
Asked by Uptownie - Sat Sep 15 02:10:43 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. during the absolute refractory period, no additional action potentials can be generated. In cardiac muscle cells, there is a prolonged refractory period (relative to skeletal muscle). I don't recall the specific ions involved, but it's probably either calcium or sodium. After the initial depolarization caused by sodium, calcium rushes in and potassium begins to leak out. The incoming Ca2+ keeps the potential of the membrane positive (that is positive on the inside). eventually the calcium channels close and potasium continues to leak out. The cell returns to resting potential.

Quotes reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895).
  • Existence was given us for action, rather than indolent and aimless contemplation; our worth is determined by the good deeds we do, rather than by the fine emotions we feel. They greatly mistake, who suppose that God cares for no other pursuit than devotion.
