Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gaps in the myelin sheath that allow the neural signals to travel at a greater speed are called nodes of Ranvier. Axon hillocks are where the axon connects to the cell body, salutatory conductors is not a term used in neuroscience, and nodules of Descartes is not a relevant term in this context.
