Electrophysiology of Excitable Cells: Action Potentials and Inactivation, Study notes of Cell Biology

An overview of the electrophysiology of excitable cells, focusing on the mechanisms of action potential generation and inactivation. Topics covered include threshold potentials, refractory periods, adapting and bursting cells, and the role of activation and inactivation gates. The document also discusses the impact of myelination on conduction velocity.
