Hello all • • This concept is broad and complex, hence I tried to explain the overview of Saltatory Conduction. • Saltatory Conduction is seen in Myelinated Axon(neurons). It is jumping of Action potential from one node to another node of Ranvier. • As Schwann's cells produce myeline sheath around the axon, axon is highly insulated and prevents the axon from contacting with the Extra cellular fluid (ECF). • Highly insulated regions of axon doesn't get depolarised due to absence of Na+ ion channels preventing the entry of Na+ ions into the axoplasm and as a result reversal of charge across the plasma membrane is not possible. • So Action potential has to jump to the region where insulation is absent i.e. nodes of Ranvier. • #saltatotyconduction • #myelinatedaxon • #myelination • #neuralcontrolandcoordination • #neetyug • Please do subscribe to NEET YUG channel for more informative videos. • Music credits: https://www.bensound.com
