For each of the following, indicate whether the condition will cause the membrane potential to become more positive, more negative, or largely unchanged when compared to the normal physiological resting membrane potential. Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins._

The potential of the membrane will become more positive if the Na+ leak channels increase but will remain the same if the cell doubles its size without adding channels.

The potential of the membrane refers to the membrane voltage caused by the movement of ions through the membrane, especially the movement of Na+ and K+. This voltage is essential for cells to communicate with each other especially in the case of cells such as neurons.

In general, the membrane is slightly negative or has a slightly negative potential, but this can change in the following cases:

Based on this, if you triple the number of Na+ it is expected the potential becomes more positive, but if you only double the size of the cell and the channels do not change the potential will be the same.

Note: This question is incomplete; here is the missing section.

Triple the number of Na+ leak channels.

Double the size of the cell, without adding channels.
