A Level Biology Revision (Year 13) “Saltatory Conduction”

In this video, we look at how the action potential passes down a myelinated axon by saltatory conduction. We explore why saltatory conduction increases the speed of transmission of a nerve impulse. We then look at other factors that affect the speed of transmission.
