The schwann cell forms a Myelin Sheath around what part of the nerve?
The Schwann cell forms a myelin sheath around the axon of the nerve.
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.
What surrounds the axon?
The axon is surrounded by the myelin sheath, which is a fatty insulating layer that speeds up the transmission of electrical signals. Outside the myelin sheath, there are Schwann cells or oligodendrocytes (depending on the type of neuron) that help form and maintain the myelin sheath.
How does a myelin sheath form?
A myelin sheath forms when oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system or Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system wrap around axons, creating multiple layers of membrane rich in lipids. This myelin sheath acts as an insulating layer that speeds up the transmission of electrical signals along the axon.
What cell produces the myelin in peripheral nerves?
Schwann cells produce myelin in peripheral nerves. Schwann cells wrap around the axon of a neuron to form the myelin sheath, which helps to insulate and speed up the conduction of nerve impulses.
What are schwann cell nucleus'?

What is the sheath of a schwann cell called?
myelin sheath
What creates the myelin sheath in the PNS?
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.
The schwann cell forms a Myelin Sheath around what part of the nerve?
The Schwann cell forms a myelin sheath around the axon of the nerve.
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.
What is the sheath of the Schwann Cell also called?
Surrounding the myelin sheath, there is a thin membrane called neurilemmal sheath. This is also called neurilemma or sheath of Schwann. This contains Schwann cells, which have flattened and elongated nuclei. The cytoplasm is thin and modified to form the thin sheath of neurilemma enclosing the myelin sheath. One nucleus is present in each internode of the axon. The nucleus is situated between myelin sheath adn neurilemma. At the node of Ranvier (where myelin sheath is absent), the neurilemma invaginates and runs up to axolemma in the form of a finger like process. In nonmyelinated nerve fiber, the neurilemma continuously surrounds axolemma. Neurilemma is absent in central nervous system. Neurilemma is necessary for the formation of myelin sheath (myelinogeneis).
What surrounds the axon?
The axon is surrounded by the myelin sheath, which is a fatty insulating layer that speeds up the transmission of electrical signals. Outside the myelin sheath, there are Schwann cells or oligodendrocytes (depending on the type of neuron) that help form and maintain the myelin sheath.
The sheath of Schwann is also called what?
The sheath of Schwann is also called the myelin sheath. It is a layer of fatty material that surrounds and insulates nerve fibers, allowing for faster transmission of nerve impulses.
What is the sheath of a schwann cell that contains cytoplasm and a nucleus and encloses myelin?
Neurilemma
Are Schwann cells found in the central nervous system?
myelin sheath
What type of cells produce the myelin sheath in the central nervous system?
Oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells both produce myelin. Oligodendrocytes produce myelin in the CNS, whereas Schwann cells produce myelin in the PNS. CNS refers to central nervous system PNS refers to peripheral nervous system
What makes myelin in the CNS and PNS?
CNS: oligodendrocytes make the myelin, they cooperate in the formation of a myelin sheath along the axon, this is the process of myelination. Each oligodendrocyte produces segments of several axons.PNS: schwann cells make the myelin, each schwann cell can myelinate one segment of a single axon and they work together ot form the myelin sheath.
