What is the role of Schwann cells in neural communication?
Select one:
A. Thermal insulation of neuronal axons
B. Insulate the neurons from contact with other cells
C. Protect the neuronal soma from trauma
D. Limit the speed of the action potential
E. Enhance the speed of the action potential

Respuesta :

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Schwann cells are glial cells for neurons in the PNS (peripheral nervous system). They produce myelin sheaths onto the axons of those neurons allowing action potentials to transmit down the axon faster through saltatory conduction (jumping from Node of Ranvier to Node of Ranvier).

hope this helped :D
