Quote (N.Wells @ Jan. 09 2016,12:32) | The moment the bee leaves (8 seconds later) the increase in charge halts momentarily, but then it starts to rise again, reaching a peak at 1:18. This indeed suggests a second pathway kicking in to change the plant's electrical potential, which possibly could be either an ion channel or pump mediated by another cation or ligand or a channel or pump that is mechanically stimulated. |
You just described an "action potential" and agreed with me. Duh?
