How do you describe how the electricity in an action potential is generated?
Electricity is a natural phenomenon in our body. Nerve cells possess properties similar to other cells in many aspects: they feed, breed, undergo processes of diffusion and osmosis in their membranes and so on, but they differ in a major aspect: they process information. The ability of nerve cells to process information relies upon the special properties of the neuron membrane, which controls the flow of substances to the inner cell (sodium, calcium and potassium ions and so on).
