The correct options are
A An action potential is sure to fire
B Voltage gated Na+ channels open
C Membrane potential is near -55mV
Threshold potential can be defined as the state of depolarisation at which an action potential is sure to fire. When a neuronal membrane depolarizes to about -55mV, the voltage gated Na+ channels open. Up until this time, only the K+ & Na+ leakage channels were open but K+ ion leakage channels are more than Na+ leakage channels. Once the voltage gated Na+ channels open, there is no preventing of an action potential because these channels, regulated by voltage, open causing a positive cascade i.e. opening of these channels depolarises the membrane further by allowing Na+ ions inside the cell and more depolarisation opens more voltage gated sodium channels.
