The diagram below shows the demand curve and marginal cost and marginal revenue curves for a new heart medication for which the pharmaceutical firm holds a 20-year patent on its production and sales.This protection gives the firm monopoly power for the 20 years of the patent. FIGURE 10-6
-Refer to Figure 10-6.Assume this pharmaceutical firm is practicing perfect price discrimination among its buyers.At its profit-maximizing level of output,it will generate a deadweight loss to society represented by
Depolarization
A decrease in the difference in electrical charge across a cell's plasma membrane, making the inside of the cell less negative compared to the outside.
Hyperpolarization
Hyperpolarization is an increase in a cell's membrane potential, making it more negative and less likely to fire an action potential.
Repolarization
The process of restoring the negative charge inside a neuron or muscle cell after depolarization, preparing it for another action potential.
Electric Signals
are impulses of charged particles, such as ions, used by neurons and other cells to communicate and perform physiological functions.
