Are all of the neurons organelles restricted to the cell body?
Not true. There are organelles like mitochondria, vesicles in the axoplasm in the axon.
Effects of myelination and nodes of ranvier on action potenital conduction?
The velocity of propagation of an action potential depends on axoplasm resistance and membrane resistance. Axoplasm resistance explains how fast a charge can move within an axon. The larger the diameter of the axon, the more quickly it can pass through. Membrane resistance describes how permeable the membrane is to the ion. The less permeable, the faster the propagation of the action potential. Therefore, myelination increases the membrane resistance and ultimately allows for fast propagation. In demyelinating diseases, there is little or sometimes no myelin covering the axons. In these cases action potentials will slow down or completely cease.
What is the different between cytoplasm and axoplasm in nervous system?
The axoplasm is the cytoplasm of an axon.
Are all of the neurons organelles restricted to the cell body?
Not true. There are organelles like mitochondria, vesicles in the axoplasm in the axon.

What would happen to part of an axon if it is cut so that it is no longer connected to its nerve cell?
there wouldn't be an impulse . This can be seen in the injury of the breaking of the backbone/cutting of the spinal cord . The grey matter of the spinal cord is composed of motor neuron and accessory (?) neuron axons, and when these are cut, the impulses cannot be transmitted to the dendrites of the next neuron, or for that matter the effector. This results in paralysis from the site of injury down.
