Nerve fiber

A nerve fiber is a portion of a nerve. A nerve is composed of several nerve fiber bundles. These nerve fiber bundles contain many nerve fibers. Each nerve fiber is surrounded by the so-called endoneurium, a kind of protective mantle around each nerve fiber. The endoneurium consists of connective tissue and elastic fibres and because … Nerve fiber

Excitation line | Nerves

Excitation line In order for the information to spread along the nerve cell and be transmitted over long distances, action potentials must be generated along the nerve again and again. Two forms of excitation conduction can be distinguished: In saltatory conduction, parts of the nerve are so well isolated in regular sections that the excitation … Excitation line | Nerves
