What is the fatty tissue that covers axons and speeds up impulses as they travel from cell to cell?

The fatty tissue that covers axons and speeds up impulses is called myelin. Myelin acts as an insulating layer, which helps to increase the speed and efficiency of nerve impulse transmission along the axon.


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.
