\huge \fbox \red{❥ Answer}

electrical impulse skips from node to node down the full length of an axon, speeding the arrival of the impulse at the nerve terminal in comparison with the slower continuous progression of depolarization spreading down an unmyelinated axon.

additional information

Actually it couses to Electrical signals travel faster in axons that are insulated with myelin. ... Action potentials traveling down the axon "jump" from node to node. This is called saltatory conduction which means "to leap." Saltatory conduction is a faster way to travel down an axon than traveling in an axon without myelin.

thanks u ❤️
