What else can I help you with?
What produces myelin in the peripheral nervous system?
In the peripheral nervous system, myelin is produced by Schwann cells.
What type of tissue Contains schwann cells?
Schwann cells are glia that myelinate the neurons of the Peripheral Nervous System
The neurilemma of axons in the peripheral nervous system is formed by?
schwann cells
What forms myelin sheath?
The glial cells: oligodendrocytes for central nervous system and schwann cells for peripheral nervous system.
Where are schwann cells found?
In the peripheral nervous system otherwise known as the PNS.
Schwann cells and satellite cells are found only in the CNS?
No, in the PNS, or peripheral nervous system.
What does the schwann cell form a myelin sheath around?
Schwann cells form a myelin sheath around peripheral nerve fibers in the peripheral nervous system.
Which cells form myelin in the spinal cord?
They are called oligodendrocytes but in the peripheral nervous system you would call them schwann cells.
What cells in the peripheral nervous system that form a covering around axons?
Schwann cells wrap around the AXONS of peripheral neurons.
Which type of cell produces the myelin covering around the axon of a neuron?
In the central nervous system, neuronal axons are myelinated by oligodendrocytes. In the peripheral nervous system axons are myelinated by Schwann cells.
What neuroglial cell is located in the peripheral nervous system?
Schwann cells and satellite cells are neuroglial cells located in the PNS
Why can the peripheral nervous system heal but the central nervous system can't?
the schwann cells (supportive cells) in the peripheral nervous system allow the neurons to regenerate, while the supportive cells in the central nervous system (oligodendrocytes and astrocytes) prevent neuron regeneration.
