During resting potential, the outside of the neuron is positively charged due to the more sodium ions than potassium ions outside the neuron, and inside of the neuron is negatively charged due to more potassium ions than sodium ions inside the neuron.
During action potential, the outside of the neuron is negatively charged due to the more potassium ions than sodium ions outside the neuron, and inside of the neuron is positively charged due to more sodium ions than potassium ions inside the neuron.
