saltatory conduction
saltatory conduction Saltatory conduction is the transmission of nerve impulses along a myelinated peripheral axon by effectively jumping from one node of Ranvier to the next.
Saltatory conduction is the transmission of nerve impulses along a myelinated peripheral axon by effectively jumping from one node of Ranvier to the next. This pattern is faster and uses less energy than continuous conduction along the whole axon.
