It is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system. It helps in stimulating the nerve transmission. It acts as an electrical insulator and allows faster and more energetically efficient conduction of nerve impulses

The medullary sheath is a covering of fatty layers that surrounds the axon of the nerve fibers. The medullary layer consists of outer neurilemma and inner fatty layer.

Explanation:

The functions of medullary sheath are as follows:

1. The medullary sheath helps in insulating the nerve fiber that is axon and prevents the leakage of ions.

2. It helps in stimulating the nerve impulses and transmissions from one neuron to another thus helps in signal transmission.
