Which of the following conducts the slowest action potentials?
Group of answer choices
ANS post-ganlionic axons
ANS pre-ganglionic axons
SNS lower motor neurons
Preganglionic axons of an individual's nervous system is very thin as well as, lightly myelinated fibers so conduct slow action potential when compared ti somatic motor neurons so is wrong as it is faster than postganglionic axon
The postganglionic axons are even thinner as well as is nonmyelinated which makes it the slowest to conduct the the action potential . So it is the correct answer as it is the one that conduct the slowest
The conduction of action potential through the somatic motor system is quicker when compared and is due to thick as well as ,heavily myelinated fibers in them
So the answer is postganglionic ANS neuron
