Blockage of voltage-gated sodium channels in a neuron will cause that neuron will be unable to produce an action potential (option C).

What is a voltage-gated sodium channel?

A voltage-gated sodium channel is a protein channel associated with nerve impulses and action potentials.

  • Action potentials are changes in the membrane potential of a neuron cell (nerve cell).

  • These changes (action potentials) are due to the increase in ions and their exchange in the neuron.

In conclusion, blockage of voltage-gated sodium channels in a neuron will cause that neuron will be unable to produce an action potential (option C).
