This continues until there is ( no, a large, a small ) difference in charge across the ( axon membranes, nodes of ranviar )

This makes the inside of the axon more ( negative, positive ) and the outside more ( positive, negative )

Some ( sodium, potassium ) moves into the axon down the ( sodium, potassium ) concentration gradient but the membrane is not very permeable to ( sodium, potassium ), unlike ( potassium, sodium ), so this amount is ( small, large )

The diffusion of ( sodium, potassium ) makes ( no, all the ) difference to the charge across the membrane. The diffusion of ( potassium, sodium ) out of the axon is the cause of a potential difference of ( -70, +40 )mV across the membrane. This charge is ( stable, unstable ) because the ( electrochemical, potassium concentration ) gradient goes from the outside to the inside of the axon whereas the ( potassium concentration, electrochemical ) gradient goes from the inside of the axon to the outside. Sodium cannot interfere due to the ( impermeability, permeability, dark forces of nature ).

To summarise: a resting potential has a potential difference across the membrane of mV. This is caused by the movement of sodium and potassium. First, sodium is moved whilst potassium is moved . Next, moves out too. After that, moves back in. At this stage, the e gradient and potassium concentration gradient balance each other. The axon is .
