  1. True


  2. true

    when Na+ enter the cell it despolarices producing the action potencial, K+ leaves the cell repolarizing it and regenarating the rest potential... Na+/K+ ATPasa bomb mantains the Na+ and K+ gradients taking Na+ out of the cell and K+ in (against its natural gradients)

  3. True.

    An ATP dependent Na+/K+ pump  pumps K+ in to the nerve fibre and pumps Na+ out of the nerve fibre in the process of generating  the initial resting potential.
You're reading: Na+ and K+ are needed for nerve cells to conduct electrical impulses.?
