During the transmission of nerve impulse through a nerve fibre, the potential on the inner side of the plasma membrane has which type of electric charge ?

A

First positive, then negative and continue to be negative

B

First negative, then positive and continue to be positive

C

First positive, then negative and again back to positive

D

First negative, then positive and again back to negative

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

If some factor becomes excessive or deficient, a control system initiates negative feedback, which consists of a series of changes that return the factor towards a certain mean value, thus maintaining homoestasis, The effects intiated are negative with respect to the initiating stimulus. In this case, low temperature is the initiating stimulus.
