  A. Are distributed approximately every 1 to 2 millimeters (mm) along the membrane of the cell axon.
   B. Contain a high density of modality-gated K+ channels for rapid depolarization of the membrane.
   C. Contain a high density of voltage-gated Na+ channels for rapid repolarization of the membrane.
   D. Have low membrane capacitance, preventing the accumulation of electrical charge.
