Document Summary
If strong enough an action potential would be formed. Some movment of the potassium to the anterior of the nerve. Because it will be predominantly negative, it is going to repel any other negative compounds (chloride). Potassium moves in the cell, and sodium is outside the cell. When it gets to these area of myelin, as oppose to moving through the nerve, it hops from one nodes of ranvier to the next node of ranvier. Initial stimuyls from different nerves coming into the cell body, and will colless and stimulate the enrve for an ap. Chemical synapse means ap is coming down the nerve, and crosses from the nerve tissue into the skeletal muscle by a sequence of chemical events: others in the heart called gap junctions. These are breaks within the myositis, that occur at regular intervals, so as the dp wave comes from the sa-node moves through the heart tissues, it will hop across these gaps.
