1.	Question : In the resting state of the neural membrane, diffusion due to concentration gradients, if allowed, would drive
Answer» `Ca^(2+)` into the cell `K^+` and `Na^+` out of the cell `Na^+` into the cell `Na^+` out of the cell Solution :The concentration gradients across the resting MEMBRANE are maintained by the ACTIVE transport of ions by the sodium-potassium pump which TRANSPORTS `3 Na^+` outward for `2 K^+` into cell.
