Read the given paragraph.
In the resting state, the axonal membrane is ___ with more ___ charged ions outside than inside.This unequal distribution of ions is due to (1) the selective permeability of the membrane, which forms an almost impenetrable barrier to _____ and (2) the action of the ____, which pumps _____ `Na^(+)` out of the neuron for every ____ `K^+` brought in.
Select the option that correctly fills the blanks in the paragraph.

A

`{:((i)" ",(ii)" ",(iii)" ",(iv)" ",(v)" ",(vi)),("depolarised","positively",Na^+,"sodium-potassium pump","three","two"):}`
