8. 
   Equilibrium
   The ion concentration at a given point on the neural cell membrane at which the three competing molecular transport forces (random molecular movement, metabolic pumping, and electrostatic forces) balance out. This results in a resting potential of -70mV.

17. 
    equilibrium
    an ideal condition towards which a channel is ever tending to develop. A channel is in equilibrium when the energy available due to the discharge and slope is just sufficient to carry the sediment charge without any tendency for the stream or channel to change its shape or slope; this entails every part of the cross section being in equilibrium. In nature, this is never fully attained Category:...

    equilibrium
    Some balance that can occur in a model, which can represent a prediction if the model has a real-world analogue. The standard case is the price-quantity balance found in a supply and demand model. If the term is not otherwise qualified it often refers to the supply and demand balance. But there also exist Nash equilibria in games, search equilibria...
