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

When the neuron is not conducting any impulse, i.e., resting, the axonal membrane:
1. is comparatively more permeable to sodium ions and nearly impermeable to potassium ions.
2. is freely permeable to sodium ions and potassium ions.
3. is impermeable to sodium ions and potassium ions.
4. is comparatively more permeable to potassium ions and nearly impermeable to sodium ions.

Each time the sodium-potassium pump functions, it actively transports:
1. 3 sodium ions outwards and 2 potassium ions into the cell.
2. 3 sodium ions into the cells and 2 potassium outwards.
3. 2 sodium ions outwards and 3 potassium ions into the cell.
4. 2 sodium ions into the cells and 3 potassium ions outwards.
