1.) If the resting membrane potential for a cell is stated as being -65 mV, this means: (choose all that apply)

Group of answer choices

- there is a 65 mV potential difference across the plasma membrane

- the intracellular side of the plasma membrane has a negative charge

- the EK is balanced by a +25 mV ENa

Critical Thinking Exercise – Analysis of the Brain
“Let’s eat pizza!â€
Â
Imagine that you are eating your favorite piece of pizza. Analyze what parts of your brain are functioning in order for you to eat the pizza. Make a 3-coloumn chart of
(1) a brain structure that is included in this single act,
(2) a brief description of the general responsibility of the brain structure, and
(3) a brief explanation of the role that the brain structure plays in eating pizza.
Note: One point will be earned for each part accurately listed with its proper function and role. In other words, list 15 structurs.
