Answer: The correct answer for the blank is -

strip mining.

Strip mining can be described as a process of mining in which overlying vegetation (such as bushes and trees) is first removed, which is followed by stripping/removal of soil and underground layers of rocks (using scrapers/buldozers and loaders) so as to expose and then extract the coal from the underground deposits of coal.

Thus, strip mining is the right answer for the blank.

The myelinated section are seperated from each other with a gap called nodes of ranvier. Glial cells (oligodendrocytes) forms the myelin sheath in the central nervous system and schwann cells (glial cells) forms the myelin sheath in peripheral nervous system. The propagation of electrical impulse in the myelinated fibers is by saltatory conduction that is from one node to another.
