Q. When a stimulus is applied at a site on the polarised membrane:
- Na+ moves out of axoplasm
- Na+ moves into axoplasm
- K+ moves into axoplasm
- Ca2+ moves into axoplasm
Q. During repolarisation of nerve
- Na+ channels close and K+ channels are open
- K+ gate close and Na+ gate opens
- Both gates remain open
- Bth K+ and Na+ gates are close
Q. Match the following stages of action potential to its corresponding state of ion movement
I. Depolarization stage (p). (K+) ions move outside the cell
II. Repolarization stage (q). (Na+) ions move inside the cell
III. Hyperpolarization stage (r). No net ion movement
IV. Resting stage (s). (K+) ions move into the cell
V. Threshold potential (t). Ligand gated sodium channels open
VI. Stimulus reaches the neuron (u). Voltage gated sodium channels open

Q. Choose the correct order of changes in the potential on the inner side of the neuronal membrane during transmission of a nerve impulse.
- First negative, then positive and continues to be positive
- First positive, then negative and continues to be negative
- First positive, then negative and again back to positive
- First negative, then positive and again back to negative
