... Myelin sheath found on the axon insulates and doesn’t allow the depolarization of the membrane. The action potential must jump from one node of Ranvier to the next. This makes the action potential move faster down the axon. Some can reach speeds of 100 m/s. Unmyelinated neurons propagate slow ...
