Saltatory conduction is

Group of answer choices

A. the process of conduction leaping along myelinated neurons.

B. an action potential generated in taste receptors or buds.

C. the movement of neurotransmitters across a synaptic cleft.

D. the activation of the fight-or-flight response.

E. the movement of an electrical impulse from the dendrite to an axon.

Saltatory conduction is A. the process of conduction leaping along myelinated neurons.

Explanation:

Saltatory conduction is actually something that not occurs in a literal way. This is the process of excitation and conduction in vertebrate myelinated nerve fibers, characterized by its discontinuous and saltatory features. Myelinated axons just allow action potentials in the unmyelinated nodes of Ranvier. Electrical impulses are transmitted between components of the central nervous system via interneurons.
