Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Axons transmit information in the form of action potentials, which are electrical signals generated by the movement of charged ions across the axon membrane. Resting potentials refer to the baseline electrical charge of the axon at rest, sodium channels are one of the mechanisms that allow for the movement of ions during an action potential, and myelin sheaths are a type of insulation that helps to increase the speed and efficiency of axonal conduction but do not transmit information themselves.
