DEPOLARIZATION	REPOLARIZATION
Positive ions (Na^+) flowing into the depolarizing cells make <t>0 (outside the cells) morę negative.	Positive ions (K^+) flowing outfrom the repolarizing cells make <t>0 (outside the cells) morę positive.

= Activated (depolarized) celi = Resting (repolarized) celi

= Direction of depolarization or repolarization wavefront = Polarity of the double layer and its resultant dipole
