The American colonies were not allowed any representatives in the British Parliament. They felt that it was unconstitutional for the Parliament to place taxes and laws on them without representation.
Conventionally, resting membrane potential can be defined as a relatively stable, ground value of transmembrane voltage in animal and plant cells.he resting potential is mostly determined by the concentrations of the ions in the fluids on both sides of the cell membrane and the ion transport proteins that are in the cell membrane.
At rest, the membrane potential is -60 millivolts (mV), which means that the inside of the cell is negative in comparison to the outside. This is ultimately due to an unequal distribution of ions, especially sodium and potassium, between the outside and inside of the cell (see Table 1).t rest, neurons (and most other cells, too) exhibit an electrical charge difference across the membrane. This difference, or membrane potential, can be measured with tiny electrodes connected to a voltmeter or an oscilloscope.
