Q.17
Saltatory conduction is superior to uninterrupted conduction because of
0%
a) Less energy required
0%
b) More speed
0%
c) Less Na+/K+ pump
0%
d) All the above
Explanation
Saltatory conduction is the propagation of action potentials along myelinated axons from one node of Ranvier to the next node, increasing the conduction velocity of action potentials. The biggest advantages of this sort of faster conduction are increased signal velocity and improved energy efficiency. This type of conduction is typically about 30 times faster than continuous conduction. By limiting electrical currents to the nodes of Ranvier, saltatory conduction also allows fewer ions to leak through the membrane. This ultimately saves metabolic energy, which is often a significant advantage since the human nervous system tends to use about 20 percent of the body’s metabolic energy. Answer : (d)
