During the transmission of nerve impulse through a nerve fibre, the potential on the innerside of the plasma membrane has which type of electric charge?
Options
- AFirst negative then positive and again back to negative
- BFirst positive then negative and continue to be negative
- CFirst negative then positive and continue to be positive
- DFirst positive then negative and again back to positive
Correct answer
A. First negative then positive and again back to negative
