What forms myelin sheath?

The glial cells: oligodendrocytes for central nervous system and schwann cells for peripheral nervous system.

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.


Do schwann cells surround axons of neurons on the cerebrum?

No, Schwann cells do not surround axons of neurons in the cerebrum. Schwann cells are primarily found in the peripheral nervous system, where they myelinate peripheral axons. In the central nervous system, including the cerebrum, oligodendrocytes perform a similar function by myelinating axons.


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.
