The
image shows the resting membrane potential of a neuron and various membrane
proteins involved in ion movement across the cell membrane. Based on this image and your understanding
of neuronal physiology, which of the following statements are correct?

Question

Answer

The resting membrane potential arises in
the first place due to the presence of cell membrane made of phospholipid
bilayer.

Answer

The resting membrane potential arises in
the first place due to the presence of cell membrane that has a monolayer of
phospholipids.

Answer

The
axon of the neuron
is
generally much longer in length than dendrites.

Answer

The protein labeled X is
likely a potassium leak channel protein, contributing to the movement of K⁺
down its concentration gradient.

Answer

The
resting membrane potential is only caused due to electrical gradient due to
ions.

Answer

The
resting membrane potential is only caused due to chemical gradient of ions.

Answer

The protein labeled X is
likely a voltage gated sodium channel
protein.
