Definitions:

Saltatory Conduction

The process by which nerve impulses jump between the nodes of Ranvier in myelinated neurons, speeding up signal transmission.

Node of Ranvier

Gaps in the myelin sheath of nerve fibers where the axonal membrane is exposed to the extracellular space, facilitating rapid signal transmission.

Action Potential

A rapid rise and subsequent fall in membrane potential across a cellular membrane, crucial for the propagation of electrical signals in nerve and muscle cells.

Local Potentials

Electrical changes in neurons that are confined to a small region, serving as the initial response to stimuli, potentially leading to action potentials.
