A resting nerve is relatively resistant to blockade by
lignocaine compared to one which is repeatedly
stimulated because:
A. Lignocaine penetrates resting nerve membrane poorly
B. Lignocaine binds more avidly to the inactivated Na+ channel
C. Nerve impulse promotes ionization of lignocaine
D. Nodes of Ranvier are inaccessible in the
resting state
