Which is wrong regarding conduction of nerve impulse?

A

In a resting neuron, the axonal membrane is more permeable to `K^(+)` ions and nearly impermeable to `Na^(+)` ions

B

Fluid outside the axon has a high concentration of `Na^(+)` and low concentration of `K^(+)`, in a resting neuron

C

Ionic gradients are maintained by Na-K pumps across the resting membrane which transports 3 `Na^(+)` ions outwards for `2K^(+)` ions into the cell

D

A neuron is polarised only when the outer surface of axonal membrane possesses a negative charge and inner surface is positively charged
