Depolarization Calcium Ion Responsible Pacemaker Potential Phase?  Vg

Voltage-gated calcium channels open when the pacemaker potential reaches threshold, and rapid calcium influx causes the depolarization phase.

Calcium 1. VG calcium channels open 2. Rapid Ca influx causes the depolarization phase

Front What ion is responsible for pacemaker potential in the depolarization phase? 
Back Calcium
1. VG calcium channels open
