Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nodes of Ranvier are gaps in the myelin that coat some axons. Myelin is the fatty substance that covers and insulates axons. The gaps in the myelin at the nodes of Ranvier allow for saltatory conduction, which is a faster and more energy-efficient way for electrical impulses to travel along the axon.
