Chapter 4: Q86PP (page 880)

Assume that a typical open ion channel spanning an axon鈥檚 membrane has a resistance of 1 * 1011 鈩�. We can model this ion channel, with its pore, as a 12-nm-long cylinder of radius 0.3 nm. What is the resistivity of the fluid in the pore? (a) 10 鈩�.m; (b) 6 鈩�.m; (c) 2 鈩�.m; (d) 1 鈩�.m

Short Answer

Expert verified

The resistivity is2.4惟/nm

Step by step solution

01

Resistivity of conductor.

Consider a typical open ion channel spanning an axon鈥檚 membrane which has a resistance of R = 1脳1011惟.The model of this ion channel with its pore can be treated as a l = 12nm long cylinder of radius r = 0.3nm. The resistance of a cylinder shape conductor is given by,

R=蚁lA

Where A =蟺谤2 is the cross-sectional area andis the resistivity. Thus,

蚁=ARl=蟺谤2Rl

Substitute with the given we get,

蚁=蟺0.3nm21脳1011惟12nm=2.4脳109惟/nm=2.4惟/nm蚁=2.4惟/nm

02

Result

Hence, the resistivity is2.4惟/nm
