Given below is the diagrammatic representation of impulse conduction through an axon.

Select the option with the incorrect information about impulse conduction at points A and B.
(a)An electric current flows on the inner surface from site A to B and on outer surface, from site B to A to complete the circuit.
(b)Action potential generated at site A arrives at site B
(c)Permeability to decreases and quickly followed by a rise in permeability to at site-A
Polarity at the site B is reversed and hence called repolarised
Polarity at the site B is reversed and hence called repolarised
(d) channels get closed and channels get opened at site-A
Depolarisation and opening of channels at site-B
Depolarisation and opening of channels at site-B

Assertion (A): Impulse transmission across electrical synapse is always faster than that of chemical synapse.
Reason (R): In electrical synapse, pre and post synaptic membranes are in very close proximity and have links called gap functions.
The correct option among the following is
