Neuron Structure

Describes the anatomy of a neuron, including parts such as the cell body, dendrites, axon, and synaptic terminals, which facilitate nerve impulse transmission.

Electrical Cord

A flexible cable comprised of one or more electrical conductors, typically encased in insulation, used to transmit power.

Nodes of Ranvier

Nodes of Ranvier are gaps in the myelin sheath of nerve fibers where axonal membranes are exposed, enabling rapid transmission of nerve impulses.

Myelin

A fatty white substance that surrounds the axon of some nerve cells, forming an electrically insulating layer that speeds the transmission of nerve impulses.
