A cell has a total membrane potential of -70 mV. Cation A is found in both the ECF and ICF and has an equilibrium potential of +45 mV. Cation B is found in both the ECF and ICF and has an equilibrium potential of -85 mV. True or false: The cell membrane is more permeable to Cation B than Cation A. (0.5 pts.)

A cell has a total membrane potential of -70 mV. Cation A is found in both the ECF and ICF and has an equilibrium potential of +45 mV. Cation B is found in both the ECF and ICF and has an equilibrium potential of -85 mV. True or false: The electrical driving force acting on Cation A is out of the cell. (0.5 pts.)
