Are sensory olfactory neurons myelinated?
no
Do action potential transmission is faster in myelinated neurons?
TRUE. Neurons with myelin (or myelinated neurons) conduct impulses much faster than those without myelin.
Neurons which are wrapped in a fatty membrane are?
myelinated
Which impulses are faster myelinated or unmyelinated?
Neural transmission is different and MORE rapid in myelinated neurons
What is impulse conduction is fastest in neurons?
Impulses that travel along myelinated neurons are the fastest.
Why are nerves myelinated?
Some neurons are myelinated so they can carry signals faster.
White matter of brain composed?
myelinated axon of the neurons
What nueron conducts impulses faster?
Myelinated neurons conduct impulses faster than unmyelinated neurons.
Sensory neurons of the PNS are?
Unipolar Sensory Neurons: large myelinated neurons with the cell body off to one side of the single dendritic-axon process. Multipolar Motor Neurons: large myelinated neurons that have many dendrites off the cell body and an axon that may branch to effect many effectors.
What animals have non-myelinated neurons?
Hagfish, Lobsters and Crabs. As well as Mantis Shrimp.
Where is the axon not insulated with myelin?
Brain & spinal cord neurons are not myelinated
Where are myelinated neurons especially abundant?
white matter in the brain and the white matter in the spinal cord.
