Video from Nonstop Neuron on YouTube

5.14.1 Explain local-circuit current flow and continuous conduction in unmyelinated fibres.

The part on this line: 0:14–2:06

Why this video

This video clearly animates continuous conduction in unmyelinated axons, showing how local depolarisation brings adjacent resting patches to threshold to propagate the impulse.

Heads up

The second half of the video transitions into myelination and saltatory conduction, which goes beyond unmyelinated fibres.
