The reestablishment of a neuron to a polarized state
A
Refractory Period
B
Polrization
C
Repolarization
D
Depolarization
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Repolarization. In response to the inflow of Na +, K + channels open, this time allowing K + on the inside to rush out of the cell. The movement of K + out of the cell causes repolarization by restoring the original membrane polarization.

Detailed explanation-2: -Depolarization is caused when positively charged sodium ions rush into a neuron with the opening of voltage-gated sodium channels. Repolarization is caused by the closing of sodium ion channels and the opening of potassium ion channels.
