Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): Membranes of neurons are in a polarised state under resting conditions 
Reason (R): This is due to differential distribution of Na+, K+ ions and negatively charged proteins across the axonal membranes 
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true but (R) is false.
4. Both (A) and (R) are false.

An action potential in the nerve fibre is produced when positive and negative charges on the outside and the inside of the axon membrane are reversed, because
 
1. More potassium enters the axon as compared to sodium ions leaving it
2. More sodium enters the axon as compared to potassium ions leaving it
3. All potassium ions leave the axon
4. All sodium ions enter the axon
