The membrane potential A resting (non-signaling) neuron has a voltage across its membrane called the resting membrane potential , or simply the resting potential . The resting potential is determined by concentration gradients of ions across the membrane and by membrane permeability to each type of ion. In a resting neuron, there are concentration gradients across the membrane for \text {Na}^+ Na + start text, N, a, end text, start superscript, plus, end superscript and \text K^+ K + start text, K, end text, start superscript, plus, end superscript . Ions move down their gradients via channels, leading to a separation of charge that creates the resting potential. The membrane is much more permeable to \text K^+ K + start text, K, end text, start superscript, plus, end superscript than to \text {Na}^+ Na + start text, N, a, end text, start superscript, plus, end superscript , so the resting potential is close to the...
