Answer:
Na+ ions from extracellular fluid to intracellular fluid
Explanation:
Action potential in a nerve is formed due to opening of Na + channels of the axonal membrane which results in movement of Na + ions inside the axonal cytoplasm.
During resting state the axonal membrane is nearly impermeable to Na + ions and more permeable to K+ ions.
So in the cytoplasm there is K+ concentration and in the external fluid there is Na+ ion concentration.
When stimulus is applied then the Na+ ions move inside the axon generating action potential .
I HOPE THIS IS HELPFUL
