Resting Membrane Potential (RMP) is the voltage (charge) difference across the cell membrane when the cell is at rest. RMP is a product of the distribution of charged particles (ions).he leak channels allow Na+ and K+ to move across the cell membrane down their gradients (from a high concentration toward a lower concentration). With the combined ion pumping and leakage of ions, the cell can maintain a stable resting membrane potential.
The opening of Na+ channels is triggered by the reduction of the membrane potential (depolarization) to the threshold of excitation. Once the ion channels open, the action potential begins as electrostatic pressure and the force of diffusion drive Na+ into the cell. The entry of positively-charged ions into the cell actually reverses the electrical potential from a negative potential to a positive one, (i.e., the inside becomes positive).
