1. Oxygen binding capacity (CO2max) is the maximum amount of oxygen that can be combined to hemoglobin in 100 ml of blood, with a normal value of 20ml/dl.
2. The sodium-potassium pump maintains the negative internal environment of cells by pumping out three sodium ions for every two potassium ions it takes in, keeping sodium concentrated outside and potassium inside cells.
3. An action potential is a temporary reversal of polarity inside a cell compared to outside, responsible for sending signals in neurons through the steps of depolarization, repolarization, and return to resting membrane potential.
