... Pumps work against concentration gradient and require ATP. For every three Na+ pumped out of the cell, two K+ are pumped in. More positive ions are pumped out than in. Neurons have three types of ion channels: 1. Ungated or passive ion channels, which are generally open. E.g., Na+, K+, Cl- and Ca2+ ...
