Both protein molecules and potassium ions:
A)carry a positive charge
B)carry a negative charge

D)are concentrated outside the neuron's cell body

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Protein molecules and potassium ions are both concentrated inside the neuron's cell body. Proteins, due to their nature and functions within cells, are synthesized and found within the cell, particularly in the cytoplasm and organelles. Potassium ions (K+) are also more concentrated inside the neuron compared to the outside, which is crucial for the maintenance of the resting membrane potential and the generation of action potentials in neurons.
