ok here's the thing. i have two lots of information in front of me that seem to contradict. i have information saying that the side of the membrane exposed to the cytoplasm is negative, indicating that potassium ions exist on the outside of the naurone at its resting potentail and that the sopium ions are posotive and exist indside the neurone, but then i have info saying that sodium ions move INTO the cell when a membrane potential is occuring, so wouldnt that indicate that at rest, they occur outside the cell? I am so ocnfused can someone please explain it to me!!
