Action Potential

A rapid change in the electrical charge across a cell membrane that results in a nerve or muscle cell firing.

Positive Feedback Cycle

A process where the end products of an action cause more of that action to occur in a feedback loop, amplifying the original action.

Sodium-Potassium Exchange Pump

A membrane-bound enzyme complex that pumps sodium out of cells while pumping potassium into cells, crucial for maintaining cellular concentration and electrical gradients.
