The opening of voltage-gated K+ channels is slower and more prolonged than the opening of the Na + channels, and much of the increase in K + conductance comes after the increase in Na+ conductance

voltage-gated K + channels bring the action potential to an end and cause closure of their gates through a negative feedback process

The net movement of positive charge out of the cell due to K+ efflux at this time helps complete the process of repolarization

The slow return of the K + channels to the closed state also explains the after-hyperpolarization, followed by a return to the resting membrane potential
