Saltatory conduction refers to the propagation of action potentials along myelinated axons from one node of Ranvier to the next node. It increases the conduction velocity of action potentials.
Yes, thermal conduction and conduction are often used interchangeably. Thermal conduction specifically refers to the transfer of heat through a material due to a temperature difference.
The Rinne test compares bone conduction and air conduction of sound using a tuning fork. The tuning fork is initially placed on the mastoid bone behind the ear to assess bone conduction, then placed near the ear canal to assess air conduction. A normal result is when air conduction is greater than bone conduction.
Conduction
The speed of conduction depends on the type of material and the conditions it is in. For example, in a metal, conduction can be as fast as the speed of sound in that material. In general, conduction is slower than the speed of light.
The metal pole rapidly 'CONDUCTS' heat away from your tongue.

salubrious means :healthy ,wholesome.anything good for health. salutatory means:welcome/greeting salutary: recovery,improvement (health,morally)
Myelination will speed the nerve conduction velocity considerably. Myelin is found in Schwann cells which encircle a given axon. It acts mainly as an insulator so that depolarization in one cell does not set off depolarizations in adjoining cells. When a neural membrane is depolarized, local currents are set up between positive and negative ions causing membrane conduction. In myelinated fibers, the local currents go from one internode (or node of Ranvier) in between two Schwann cells to the next internode. Thus we have "salutatory conduction" where a neural impulse actually jumps from one internode to the next without being conducted down the entire cell membrane.

Conduction
Characteristics for conduction
conduction by itself is slower to heat but conduction and convection is faster to heat
That sounds like a description of heat conduction.
It is known as: conduction.
