Consider the given two statements:
I: When a neuron is not conducting any impulse, i.e., resting, the axonal membrane is comparatively more permeable to potassium ions (K+ ) and nearly impermeable to sodium ions (Na+).
II: Similarly, the membrane is permeable to negatively charged proteins present in the axoplasm.
