text: Here are some meaningful comparisons that we can make in looking at the effects on AP propagation of myelination status, membrane capacitance, axon diameter, and internal resistance: Given two equally myelinated/unmyelinated axons: 1) both axons will have approximately equal membrane capacitance, 2) the axon of greater diameter will have a lower internal resistance, thus 3) in both myelinated and unmyelinated axons, the key factor determining AP propagation speed is axon diameter (ie, internal resistance).
