For some axons, glial cells produce an insulating sheath that makes rapid transmission possible. What is this process called?
A) Differentiation
B) Migration
C) Myelination
D) Proliferation

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process described is called myelination, where glial cells produce an insulating sheath around axons to increase the speed of transmission. Differentiation, migration, and proliferation are all processes involved in the development and maintenance of neurons and glial cells but do not specifically refer to myelination.
