Sodium and potassium ions move in and out of the axon when the membrane is ______

Biology
1 answer:
Ostrovityanka [42]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Answer : Depolarized

Explanation:

Sodium and Potassium ions tend to move inside of the axin when the membrane is depolarized.

A change in polarity occurs in the axon membrane when a nerve impulse travels across it.  At the beginning of an action potential or nerve impulse , the ions of sodium tend to move inside of axon causing depolarization. As a result potassium ions tend to move outside of the axon causing re polarization. Hence, this effect causes the nerve impulse to travel in one direction only inside the axon.
