Nerve fibers are classed into three types – A delta fibers, B fibers, and C fibres. A and B are myelinated and C are unmyelinated. An axon is one of two types of protoplasmic protrusions that extrude from the cell body of a neuron, the other type being dendrites.

Thinly myelinated fibers send information about sharp pain and cool temperature. Very small and unmyelinated fibers transmit messages about burning pain, a sensation of heat, or itching. In addition to motor and sensory axons, the peripheral nervous system includes autonomic nerve fibers as well.

Organization of the Peripheral Nervous System. With the exception of the cranial nerves, peripheral nerves all travel to and from the spinal cord. Sensory nerves enter the spine near the back of the spinal cord, and motor fibers exit from the front of the cord.

Peripheral neuropathy is any disease or disorder of a nerve outside of the brain and spinal cord. It is also known as peripheral neuritis, although the word neuritis specifically refers to inflammation of the nerve and not all neuropathies are inflammatory in nature.

(Redirected from Unmyelinated) Myelin is a fatty white substance that surrounds the axon of some nerve cells, forming an electrically insulating layer. It is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system. It is an outgrowth of a type of glial cell. The production of the myelin sheath is called myelination or myelinogenesis.

An axon (from Greek ἄξων áxōn, axis), is a long, slender projection of a nerve cell, or neuron, that typically conducts electrical impulses away from the neuron's cell body. Axons are also known as nerve fibers. The function of the axon is to transmit information to different neurons, muscles and glands.

Chapter 3 - Peripheral nervous system. 1  The peripheral nervous system is divided into somatic and autonomic components. 2  The somatic nervous system includes the sensory and motor nerves that innervate the limbs and body wall. Sensory nerve fibers in the peripheral nerves are the peripheral axonal process of neurons in the dorsal root ganglion. The motor axons are the processes of anterior horn cells of the spinal cord.

The plasma membran of a neuron axon. Cell process that conducts nerve impulses away from a neuron cell body. The conical area of a neuron cell body, where the axon begins and the nerve impulse is generated. Nerve cell with an axon and dendrite that extend from opposite sides of its cell body. Rare neuron type found only in the retina of the eye, the olfactory region of the nose, and the inner ear. Central Nervous System (CNS) Portion of the nervous system that consists of the brain and spinal cord.

This type of peripheral nerve disease is inherited. Genetic errors may cause any number of disturbances of the peripheral nerves mainly by damaging the myelin sheath or the axons that make up the nerve fibers. These types of neuropathy can be classified as : Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies (HMSNs)

Peripheral Nerve Cells. There are many different types of nerve cells, each relaying slightly different information to the brain along wiry processes called axons. Furthermore, some of these axons are wrapped in a protective layer called myelin, which can speed the electrical transmission of messages along the axon.

what type of peripheral nerve fibers are unmyelinated?
The C is a type of peripheral nerve fibers that are unmyelinated.
