It acts an insulator on the neurons. The neurons are covered with it and hence the nerve impulses have to jump over the myelin sheath to reach other neurons. This causes nerve impulses to move rapidly from neuron to neuron.

Summarize what happened during the Islamic Golden Age of Learning
algol13

Explanation:

The Abbasid caliphs established the city of Baghdad in 762 CE. It became a center of learning and the hub of what is known as the Golden Age of Islam.

The Islamic Golden Age refers to a period in the history of Islam, traditionally dated from the 8th century to the 13th century, during which much of the historically Islamic world was ruled by various caliphates and science, economic development, and cultural works flourished. This period is traditionally understood to have begun during the reign of the Abbasid caliph Harun al-Rashid (786–809) with the inauguration of the House of Wisdom in Baghdad, where scholars from various parts of the world with different cultural backgrounds were mandated to gather and translate all of the world’s classical knowledge into the Arabic language.
