Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Schwann cells are responsible for forming the myelin sheaths around nerve fibers in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Satellite cells are responsible for regulating the environment around neurons in the PNS, while ependymal cells line the ventricles of the brain and central canal of the spinal cord. Nerve cells are another term for neurons, which transmit nerve impulses.
