Answer:

The correct answer is - the large cross-sectional area and greater length of the cytoplasmic core get less resistance than the smaller cross-sectional area.

Explanation:

The greater length and the large cross-sectional area of the cytoplasmic path or core get less resistance than the resistance of the current path which is the small cross-sectional area of axoplasm. This leads it to greater resistance than the resistance of the current path through the extracellular fluid.

Other than this there is also an unequal distribution of the ions that leads to the increase in potential difference as higher Na+ ions present in cytoplasm and high amount of K+ ion present in axoplasm.

What is the result of dissociation of water? a) Formation of O-2 ions b) Formation of H+ and OH- ions c) Formation of H- and OH+
kati45 [8]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The result of the dissociation of water is  the formation <span>of H- and OH+ ions. This process is reversible which means that it could form back to water. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
