Nerve impulses travel in one direction along a neuron, from the dendrites, through the cell body, down the axon, and finally to the axon terminals. At the axon terminals, neurotransmitters are released to communicate with the next neuron or target cell. This process allows the nerve impulse to pass through the nervous system efficiently.
Messages from the femoral nerve are sent to the brain through a series of electrical impulses. These impulses travel along the nerve fibers of the femoral nerve until they reach the spinal cord, where they are then transmitted up to the brain via the spinal cord's sensory pathways. Once in the brain, the messages are interpreted and processed to produce a response or sensation.
Although nerve impulses are electrical signals that travel along nerves in the same way, the specific response can differ based on the type of nerve fiber involved, where the impulse is being sent, and the neurotransmitters released. Different nerve fibers may lead to different responses in the body due to variations in the pathways and connections in the nervous system. Additionally, the specific receptors and effector organs that the nerve impulses target can also influence the response.

Nerve impulses do not travel at 170 mph; instead, they can vary significantly in speed depending on the type of nerve fiber. In myelinated fibers, impulses can travel at speeds up to about 120 meters per second (approximately 268 mph), while unmyelinated fibers are much slower. Thus, while some nerve impulses can approach high speeds, they do not typically reach 170 mph.

Nerve impulses travel through nerve fibers, and the speed of which they travel depends on the type of nerve fiber. They travel usually around 86 miles per hour.

The internodal pathway is the specialized pathway for conducting electrical impulses between the nodes of Ranvier in myelinated nerve fibers. It allows for fast and efficient transmission of signals along the nerve fiber.
The major difference is the direction of travel for nerve impulses. In the afferent nervous system, the impulses are traveling away from the brain - these tend to be motor impulses. In the efferent nervous system, the impulses are traveling towards the brain - these tend to be sensory impulses.

Unmyelinated nerve fibers conduct impulses more slowly than myelinated nerve fibers. Myelinated nerve fibers have a fatty substance called myelin sheath that allows for faster transmission of impulses compared to unmyelinated fibers without this sheath.
They do not travel - their position is fixed throughout the body. Nerve impulses travel.
