An action potential results from a transient membrane depolarization along the length of an axon. Action potentials are characterized by ion-specific changes in permeability associated with specific transmembrane proteins in the membrane of the axon. Which of the following graphs BEST characterizes the ionic permeabilities of Na+ and K+ through these transmembrane proteins during an action potential?

Answer: A
How would you know the difference between these 2, since both are showing that as potassium challens open, sodium chanels close?
