Neurons

Neither have we understood the biological information technology, it simply works in a different way than physics and communications engineering teach us. Without doubt the action potential of a nerve conductor consists of electric signals which can be measured at the nerve endings. An electric current flow does not occur because there is no return conductor. And it can’t be an electromagnetic wave due to the lack of antennae structures. Furthermore it is well-known to vibrate transversally, while the nodes of Ranvier indicate that a longitudinal wave is transmitted here. In acoustics the corresponding standing waves are depicted as Kundt’s dust figures. As the distance between the nodes of a musical instrument generates a certain tone, it can only be an electrical longitudinal wave with the corresponding wave length that is passed through the nerves.
