Saltatory conduction occurs in neurons with _____.
A) synaptic connections
B) voltage differentials
C) organic ions
D) myelin sheaths

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Saltatory conduction is the process by which electrical signals jump from one node of Ranvier to the next along a myelinated axon. Myelin sheaths provide insulation and increase the speed of conduction of nerve impulses, allowing the signal to "leap" from node to node, which is known as saltatory conduction.
