What would happen to a patient”s cellular ek+
What would happen to a patient’s cellular EK+ if a nurse accidentally administered a potassium solution that caused the patient’s extracellular potassium ion concentration to rise to 6.01 mM? Assume a body temperature of 37 °C.
It would rise to -5.2 mV.
It would have no effect on the EK+. This is a constant, fixed value.
It would become less negative, -85 mV.
It would become positive, 85 mV.
