This is a process that occurs in the CNS and PNS with axons. In the CNS oligodendrocytes surround the axons and in PNS schwann cells surround the axons. the myelin sheath will increase the speed of nervous conduction along the axon.
What is the purpose of the myelin sheath?
RIGHT Answer--- The myelin sheath serves as an insulator for the axon.

An insulating layer that surrounds the axon is a myelin sheath.
The endoneurium surrounds and protects the myelin sheath.
Myelin sheath
A myelin sheath is a layer of myelin (a dielectric, or electric insulator) around the axon of a neuron.
Oligodendrocytes are specialized neurolgical cells that produce myelin sheath.

Schwann cells make the myelin sheath in the PNS. Each of the Schwann cells myelinate their own segment of the axon, they work together to make the myelin sheath.
Myelin sheaths insulate nerve fibers
