An extremely high level of social inhibition is known as Social Anxiety Disorder, though is usually falselyperceived to be the result of a lack of confidence or self esteem.
Function of Electrochemical Impulses: In neurons, cell-to-cell communication is the major role of action potential. In other types of cells, activation of intracellular processes is their major function.
Standard Electrode Potentials. In an electrochemical cell, an electric potential is created between two dissimilar metals. This potential is a measure of the energy per unit charge which is available from the oxidation/reduction reactions to drive the reaction. It is customary to visualize the cell reaction in terms of two half-reactions, an oxidation half-reaction and a reduction half-reaction.
