A
Na+ channels
B
K+ channels
C
Chloride channels
D
Ca++ channels
High-Yield Explanation
Tetraethylammonium (TEA) ion is known to block the K+ channels. It is used sometimes to stop the K+ currents, in order to study the other ionic currents and their effects on membrane potential. Tetrodotoxin (TTX) and saxitoxin (STX) are the blockers of Na+ channels. Niflumic acid is Cl- channel blocker used in scientific research studies.
