<h2>CNS </h2>
Explanation:
An example of a myelin producing cell in the CNS is oligodendrocyte
- The major function of oligodendrocytes is the formation of myelin
- Myelin acts as an insulator of axonal segments and is a prerequisite for the high velocity of nerve conduction
- Larger axons form thicker myelin
- During development, oligodendrocytes arise from precursors located in the sub-ventricular zone such as the sub-ventricular zone of the lateral ventricles for the cerebrum or the fourth ventricle for the cerebellum
- In the spinal cord, oligodendrocytes originate from the ventral regions of the neural tube and in the optic nerve they migrate into the nerve from the third ventricle
- It is the oligodendrocyte precursor cells which migrate to their destination where they then differentiate into the more mature oligodendrocytes
- The proliferation of the oligodendrocyte progenitor cells is controlled by a number of growth factors released predominantly from neurons but also from astrocytes such as platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) or fibroblast growth factor (FGF)

Answer:
D
Explanation:
The cuticle of a plant helps protect its aerial epidermis from things like environmental stresses and desiccation.
Answer:
Mitosis, Meiosis, and both are written below
Explanation:
Mitosis: produces more somatic (body) cells, purpose is for healing and growing, the daughter cells are exact replicas
- This is because mitosis occurs in body cells and is used for growth, so all the daughter cells are the same.
Meiosis: results in sex cells (gametes), results in eggs and sperm, purpose is for creating new individuals (eventually), each daughter cell is different, has 2 separate division stages
- This is because meiosis occurs in gametes and is used in reproduction.
Both: Chromosomes need to replicate before the whole process begins, a form of reproduction
- This is because both are reproducing (they are dividing) and DNA must be replicated so each daughter cell has it.
