Nerve fibres

NERVE FIBRES

  • Ganglia possess two types of nerve fibres
    • Pre ganglionic nerve fibre
      • Nerve fiber from CNS to cells of ganglia for synapse.
      • They are small, myelinated with conduction velocity of 3-15 m/sec, representing class B fibre.
    • Post ganglionic nerve fibre
      • Nerve fibre from ganglia to effector organ.
      • These fibres are non-myelinated, small , class C fibers with conduction velocity of 0.7-2.3 m/sec.
