When a neuron is an resting state i.e not conducting any impulse the axonal membrane is:
comparatively more permeable to ions and nearly impermeable to ions
equally permeable to both and ions.
impermeable to both and ions
comparatively more permeable to ions and nearly impermeable to ions
Resting potential -
The electrical potential difference across the resting plasma membrane is called as the resting potential.
- wherein
During resting potential axonal membrane is more permeable to K+ and nearly impermeable to Na+
