Assertion (A): The axonal membrane of the neuron during resting stage is more permeable to potassium ions (K+)  and nearly impermeable to sodium ions (Na+)
Reason (R): In resting state neurons does not conduct any impulse, so these don’t require ATP to remain in a resting state
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true, but (R) is false.

Assertion (A): When light strikes the retina, potential differences are generated in photoreceptors
Reason (R): Light induces dissociation of the retinal from opsin resulting in changes in the structure of the opsin which in turn causes membrane permeability changes.

Consider the two statements regarding the human internal ear:
Statement I:  The malleus is attached to the tympanic membrane and the stapes is attached to the oval window of the cochlea.
Statement II:  At the base of the cochlea, the scala vestibuli ends at the round window, while the scala tympani terminates at the oval window which opens to the middle ear.
 
1. Statement I is incorrect; Statement II is correct
2. Statement I is correct; Statement II is correct
3. Statement I is correct; Statement II is incorrect
