which of the following does not occur when neurons are stimulated? group of answer choices recovery involves the movement of na out of the cell and k into the cell, resulting in the membrane regaining its resting potential. local depolarization results from the opening of na ion channels allowing na to exit the cell. depolarization stimulates the opening of ion-gated k channels, resulting in repolarization. na ion channels open in response to the change in membrane potential, resulting in momentary local depolarization of the membrane.
