In saltatory conduction of impulse
Options
(a) time is conserved
(b) energy is conserved
(c) both time and energy are conserved
(d) neither time nor energy is conserved
Correct Answer:
energy is conserved
Explanation:
saltatory conduction increase the speed of impulse transmission by causing the depolarization process to jump from one node to the next, it also conserves energy for the axon as depolarization only occurs at the nodes and not along the whole length of the nerve fibre, as in unmyelinated fibre
