A neuroanatomical illustration shows a myelinated neuron with dendritic arbor, a soma containing a nucleus, mitochondria, and rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), a long axon wrapped by myelin sheaths interrupted by nodes of Ranvier, and terminal boutons. In biological hierarchy, it depicts a single nerve cell within neural tissue of the central or peripheral nervous system (CNS/PNS). In physiology, the axon conducts action potentials, and the myelin sheath enables saltatory conduction, increasing signal transmission velocity and metabolic efficiency along the axon.
