Sodium and Potassium are the answers you are looking for

Answer 2

Answer;

Sodium and potassium ions

Explanation;

• Sodium and potassium ions are important elements in the transmission of impulses in the neurons.
• The resting potential of a neuron is negative when the membrane is at rest due to the accumulation of more sodium ions outside the cell than potassium ions inside the cell.
• When potassium enters the cell, it stimulates a sodium-potassium exchange across the cell membrane. In the nerve cells, this exchange generates an electrical potential which allows the conduction of nerve impulses.
