Which of the following option is correct for the statement 'X' and 'Y'
Statement 'X' - Immediately after repolarization, ionic imbalance is created on both the sides of the nerve fibre
Statement 'Y' - During repularization `K^(+)` ion channel open up and `K^(+)` ion moves on innerside of plasma membrane

Options

A. Statement 'X' and 'Y' are correct and 'Y' is correct for 'X'
B. Statement 'X' and 'Y' are correct and 'Y' is not correct for 'X'
C. Statement 'X' is correct and 'Y' is wrong
D. Statement 'X' is wrong and 'Y' is correct

Answer

c

Explanation

At the end of repolarization, a difference in concentration of positve ions on two sides of plasma membrane is generated leading to ionic imbalnce. During repolarization, `K^(+)` ion channels open up and `K(+)` ions move out of the plasma membrane.
