When a neuron is at resting state, i.e., not conducting any impulse, the axonal membrane is

1.	equally permeable to both ${\mathrm{Na}}^{+}$ and ${\mathrm{K}}^{+}$ ions
2.	impermeable to both ${\mathrm{Na}}^{+}$ and ${\mathrm{K}}^{+}$ ions
3.	comparatively more permeable to ${\mathrm{K}}^{+}$ ions and nearly impermeable to ${\mathrm{Na}}^{+}$ ions
4.	comparatively more permeable to ${\mathrm{Na}}^{+}$ ions and nearly impermeable to ${\mathrm{K}}^{+}$ ions

1. hypothalamus
2. pons

A person is wearing spectacles with concave lenses for correcting vision. While not using the glasses, the image of a distant object in his case will be formed:
1. on the blind spot
2. behind the retina
3. in front of the retina

Unidirectional transmission of a nerve impulse through nerve fibre is due to the fact that
1. nerve fibre is insulated by a medullary sheath
2. sodium pump starts operating only at the cyton and then continues into the nerve fibre
3. neurotransmitters are released by dendrites and not by axon endings
4. neurotransmitters are released by the axon endings and not by dendrites.
