The nervous system transmits signals at varying speeds, depending on the type of nerve fibers involved. Myelinated fibers, which are insulated with a fatty sheath, can conduct impulses at speeds of up to 120 meters per second (about 267 miles per hour), while unmyelinated fibers transmit signals more slowly, at around 1 meter per second. This rapid communication is essential for reflexes and quick responses to stimuli. Overall, the speed of signal transmission plays a crucial role in coordinating bodily functions and reactions.
