प्रश्न
At the end of repolarization, the nerve membrane gets hyperpolarized. Why?

उत्तर
At the end of repolarization, the membrane potential inside the axolemma becomes negative due to the efflux of K+ ions. When it becomes more negative than the resting potential − 70 mV to about – 90 mV, it becomes hyperpolarised.

Assertion: The imbalance in concentration of Na+, K+ and proteins generates action potential.
Reason: To maintain the unequal distribution of Na+ and K+, the neurons use electrical energy.
As compare to medullated nerves, the conduction of impulse by non-medullated nerve fibres is ______ times faster.
Assertion: Impulse travels from dendrite to cell body and then along the axon to its end.
Reason: Information acquired at the end of the dendrite tip of a nerve cell sets of an electric impulse.
Identify the parts of a neuron which help the nerve impulse to travel towards the cell body.
