    Nerve impulses travel along neurons to transmit signals between the brain and different parts of the body. The speed at which these nerve impulses travel, known as nerve conduction velocity, depends on the diameter and thickness of the myelin sheath surrounding the neuron. Larger diameter neurons with thicker myelin sheaths have faster nerve conduction velocities, allowing signals to travel up to 120 meters per second.
