Light micrograph of a longitudinal section through a bundle (fascicle) of nerve fibres, or axons. Within each fascicle are many myelinated nerve fibres. Myelin (black) is an insulating fatty layer that surrounds single nerve fibres increasing the speed at which nerve impulses travel. Magnification: x400 when printed at 15cm wide. | |
