A threshold stimulus will cause the opening of voltage gated sodium ion channels that will cause further depolarizing stimulus. This stimulus will open still more voltage gated sodium ion channels.
An action potential is regarded as an example of a positive feedback. Which of the following examples below best illustrates the positive feedback aspect of an action potential?
Voltage gated potassium ion channels open slowly and remain open long enough to cause hyperpolarization.
The sodium potassium pump consistently moves ions as long as ATP is available, and regardless of membrane potential changes.
A threshold stimulus will cause the opening of voltage gated sodium ion channels that will cause further depolarizing stimulus. This stimulus will open still more voltage gated sodium ion channels.
Potassium permeability is about 2.5 times greater than sodium ions.

this allows for the efflux of potassium ions, resulting in the repolarization of the cell
The depolarization phase of an action potential is punctuated by closing of voltage gated sodium ion channels. Choose the statement below that is not a consequence of the closing of inactivating gates.
This stops the depolarization of the axon membrane.
This limits the frequency of action potentials down the axon.
This allows for the efflux of potassium ions, resulting in the repolarization of the cell.
