A stylized diagram of a bipolar neuron shows a central soma with a nucleus, a single dendritic pole branching superiorly, and a myelinated axon extending inferiorly with segmented myelin internodes separated by nodes of Ranvier, terminating in axon terminals. In the biological hierarchy, this is a neuronal cell within nervous tissue of the nervous system. In neuroanatomy and neurophysiology, myelin—produced by oligodendrocytes in the CNS (central nervous system) or Schwann cells in the PNS (peripheral nervous system)—enables rapid saltatory conduction of action potentials along the axon.
