Question

question 8
which ions are responsible for conducting nerve impulses?
a cl and k
b ca and k.
c na and ca
d na and k

Explanation:

Nerve impulse conduction involves the movement of sodium (Na) and potassium (K) ions across the nerve cell membrane. Sodium - potassium pumps and ion channels play crucial roles in generating and propagating the action potential (nerve impulse). Calcium (Ca) is more involved in processes like muscle contraction and neurotransmitter release at the synapse, and chloride (Cl) has a role in maintaining the resting membrane potential but is not the main ions for conducting the nerve impulse.

Answer:

D. Na and K
