The property rights approach to environmental issues often becomes highly relevant in cases involving __________________. greenh
NemiM [27]

The property rights approach to environmental issues often becomes highly relevant in cases involving endangered species.

The approach based on property rights postulates that if exclusive property rights are correctly established, the public good of maintaining high environmental quality may be converted into a private good, and the best possible distribution of environmental resources will be accomplished.

The protection of people's property rights is an efficient method for preserving and rehabilitating endangered animals. It is more likely that recovery will occur if these animals are owned by someone who will benefit in some way from their growth. But if endangered species are nothing more than a burden, any kind of financial incentive to preserve them is met with fierce opposition.

pochemuha
<span>Myelination enhances the speed of action potential propagation.
The difference between myelinated and unmyelinated axons are in the propagation of action potential. In unmyelinated axons, the action potential travels continuously through the axons. On the other hand, among the myelinated nerve fibres, transmembrane currents can only occur at the nodes of Ranvier where the axonal membrane is exposed, so the excitation of the axonal membrane jumps from node to node. This propagation is called saltatory conduction and this movement of depolarization wave is much faster than in unmyelinated fibres.</span>
