These structures are often surrounded by a myelin sheath, and ion channels along these structures are clustered at nodes of Ranvier [RON-vee-ay].
Santiago Ramon y Cajal [ruh-MOAN ee kuh-HALL] showed that these structures are independent of one another, and the Hodgkin-Huxley model was derived from experiments on a "giant" one of these structures taken from a squid.
