More K+ ions than Na + will leak across the plasma membrane of neurons, which means the membrane is continually losing more positive charges than it gains.
Neurons have sodium and potassium ions on its membrane that help in transport of action potential. The myelin sheath covered the nerve cell and the nerve impulse conduction throught it is called saltatory conduction.
It is high speed nerve conduction that involves polarization and depolarisation. The mentioned states are achieved through interchange of sodium and potassium ions. The three sodium ions and two potassium ions outside and inside the cell respectively.
