K+ leak channels are found in the plasma membrane. These channels open and close in an unregulated, random fashion. What do they accomplish in a resting cell?
Answer:
They set the K+ concentration gradient to zero.
They set the membrane potential to zero.
They disrupt the resting membrane potential.
They keep the electrochemical gradient for K+ at zero.
