Undisturbed rock formations on mountain tops are basically an indication of the Earth's age. This can be supported by the law of proposition. This law states that the youngest sediments or rock are found at the top of the sequence and the oldest are found at the bottom - given they're undisturbed. So the higher mountain tops or rocks formation are, the more we can say that the Earth is indeed very old.

Answer: 1. The resting membrane potential would become less negative (more positive).

Explanation:

Resting membrane potential is a voltage carried by a resting (non-signaling) neuron, or called as resting potential, across its membrane.  The resting potential is determined by ion concentration gradients across the membrane, and the permeability of the membrane to each ion form.  

In a resting brain, there are gradients of concentration across the Na+ and K+ membranes. Forces shift their gradients down through channels, resulting in a separation of charges that provides the potential for rest. The membrane is much more permeable to K+ than to Na+, so the resting potential is similar to K+'s potential for equilibrium.

Hence, the correct option is 1. The resting membrane potential would become less negative (more positive).
