One oligodendrocyte can extend its processes to 50 axons. Myelin increases the impulse speed and decreases the capacitance of the axon membrane.Credit:Juan Gaertner/Science SourceSize:8000px × 6000px (~137 MB)Get PricingHow Will The Visual Be Used?ShareRelated Virtual folders:3D Medical ImagesKeywords:3d computer model-3d rendering-action potential-axon-brain-cells-central nervous system-computer illustration-healthcare-illustration-insulation-magnified image-medical-myelin sheath-myelination-nerve-neuron-oligodendrocyte-Ranvier node-saltatory propagation-synapseFolder Legacy Identifier:SS2CT84082_20190315Model release:N/AParent folder:2019-03-15
