Concentration given in (mEq/L) Extracellular Intracellular Valence 150 15 1 lon (s) Sodium (Na+) Potassium (K) 5 150 1 (3) 2.1 Briefly discuss the regulation of Na+ and K+ ion gradients in a normal nerve fibre. 2.2 Using the information given in the above table, determine the equilibrium potential for both Nat and K+ ions. 2.3 Determine the ratio of sodium and potassium ions. 2.4 If the extracellular concentration of Nat decreases to 145 mEq/L. What would be the equilibrium concentration of Nat? Motivate your answer with the necessary calculations. (5) (1) (2)
