Page "Axon" Paragraph 10

The physiology can be described by the Hodgkin-Huxley Model, extended to vertebrates in Frankenhaeuser-Huxley equations.

Peripheral nerve fibers can be classified based on axonal conduction velocity, mylenation, fiber size etc.

For example, there are slow-conducting unmyelinated C fibers and faster-conducting myelinated Aδ fibers.

More complex mathematical modeling continues to be done today.

There are several types of sensory-as well as motorfibers.

Other fibers not mentioned in table are e. g. fibers of the autonomic nervous system
