Explanation:

Myelin is formed by Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS). Each Schwann cell forms a single myelin sheath around an axon. ... Along the same axon, sequential myelin sheaths are formed by different oligodendrocytes.

Explanation:

Myelin Sheath

A myelin sheath is a membranous wrapping around an axon that greatly increases the speed of conduction of action potentials along the axon.
