Explanation:

The resting potential tells about what happens when a neuron is at rest. An action potential occurs when a neuron sends information down an axon, away from the cell body. ... When the depolarization reaches about -55 mV a neuron will fire an action potential. This is the threshold.

Answer:

At the resting potential, the membrane potential is close to EK, the equilibrium potential of K+. When sodium channels open, the membrane depolarizes. When depolarization reaches the threshold potential, it triggers an action potential.
