noun
resting potential
Physiology term for the electrical potential across a cell membrane when the cell is not stimulated.
神経細胞の静止電位は約-70mVである。
The resting potential of a neuron is about -70 mV.
活動電位 (action potential) is the rapid change in membrane potential that occurs when a cell is stimulated, whereas 静止電位 is the stable, resting state.
Compound of 静止 (rest, stillness) and 電位 (electric potential).
