Using the patch clamp technique, a researcher measures a single channel in a membrane. The receptor channel passes 3 pA (picoamperes) of ionic current over a period of 8 msec at -60 mV; 1 pA = 10 -12 ampere.Based on your knowledge of nerve transmission, this movement of ions willA. stimulate a change in a postsynaptic membrane if 50 channel events are combined.B. stimulate a change in a postsynaptic membrane if three channel events are combined.C. not stimulate a change in a postsynaptic membrane.D. generate a current resulting in membrane depolarization.E. stimulate a change in a postsynaptic membrane
