Myelination and large diameter both contribute to faster action potential propagation. Myelination helps to insulate the axon and prevent ion leakage, while a larger diameter allows for faster ion flow. Therefore, a myelinated axon with a large diameter would exhibit the fastest propagation of action potentials.
