Dear Student
(a) A -II, B –I, C – IV, D –III
At resting stage of neuron, all voltage-gated sodium-potassium channels are closed. Action potential has different stages like depolarization, repolarization and refractory phase. The ionic activity dynamically shifts with the change in stages of an action potential. At depolarization, positive sodium ions rush into nerve cells. At repolarization, potassium gate opens. At absolute refractory phase, sodium channels remain open.
Hope this information will clear your doubts about the topic.
