Electrical Charge

A fundamental property of matter that leads to electromagnetic interactions, described in terms of positive or negative electrical energy.

Nodes of Ranvier

Gaps in the myelin sheath of nerve fibers, which play a critical role in the fast propagation of nerve impulses.

Myelinated Axon
