Naddik [55]

Answer:

The correct answer will be true.

Myelin is a protective and insulating layer formed around the neurons of the central and peripheral neurons.  The Schwann cells in the PNS and oligodendrocytes in the CNS form the myelin sheath around the neurons.

This myelin protects the axons of the neurons as well insulate the neurons which speed up the transmission of the electrical impulse generated in the neurons. If myelin is damaged, these impulses get slow or get damaged.
