which of the following channels is affected by changes in electrical properties of the membrane?
mechanically - gated channel
leakage channel
voltage - gated channel
ligand - gated channel
Voltage - gated channels open or close in response to changes in the membrane potential (electrical properties of the membrane). Mechanically - gated channels respond to physical deformation. Leakage channels are always open (not directly affected by electrical changes in the way voltage - gated are). Ligand - gated channels respond to the binding of a chemical ligand.
