Which of the following is not true of resting potential of a typical neuron?
1. The inside of the cell is more negative than is the outside
2. There are concentration gradients with more sodium outside the cell and a higher potassium concentration inside the cell
3. It is about 70 mV and can be measured by using microelectrodes placed inside and outside the cell.
4. It is formed by the sequential opening of voltage-gated channels.

Consider the given statements:
I: Myelinated nerve fibres are enveloped with Schwann cells, which form a myelin sheath around the axon.
II: Unmyelinated nerve fibre is not enclosed by a Schwann cell or a myelin sheath.
III: Myelinated nerve fibres are found in spinal and cranial nerves.
IV: Unmyelinated nerve fibres are commonly found in autonomous and somatic neural systems.
 
1. Only II is incorrect 2. I and II are correct
