Consider the following statements:
I. The resting axonal membrane is nearly impermeable to sodium ions.
II. Depolarization of the axonal membrane is due to influx of sodium ions.

An axon has 4 terminal ends connected with dendrites of four different neurons. Its nerve impulse will
1. Become weak due to distribution into four
2. Travel in all the four neurons with equal strength
3. Pass on to one neuron only
4. Travel to none because the movement of impulse is from dendrite to axon
Third ventricle lies in
1. Medulla oblongata
2. Midbrain
3. Diencephalon
4. Cerebrum
