@bolded: the Na/K channel is 3 Na out for 2 K in if I remember correctly, its a passive channel, which means it does it more or less automatically to recharge the inside of the cell with more K to pump it out in the event of another activation


Your right about the 3 Na/2 K however its not a passive channel, its voltage gated i believe.
Thanks everyone for the help :)
