Proteins and DNA have a negative charge and they are inside the cell, contributing to thenegative charge inside the cellb. Resting membrane potential of the cell is -70mV (more negative ions inside the cell)c. The Nernst equation only applies to a cell whose membrane is permeable to only one iond. Real life is much more complicated cells at rest are permeable to potassium, sodium, and chloride simultaneously These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture.
