How is an action potential started and transmitted in a myelinated motor neuron?
Sorry, don’t have web links, but they should be easy to find. The action potential is started when ions move across the membrane to depolarize the neuron. The membrane in the resting state is hyperpolarized, and then when ions move to make the inside less negative with respect to outside, this initiates the AP. It originates at the axon Hillock, and travels by saltatory conduction in myelinated neurons, jumping from node or Ranvier to node of Ranvier. So maybe google things like action potential, axon Hillock, node of Ranvier, etc. This is the best I can do for now.
