Schwan cells are found in

A

Myelinated nerve fibres

B

Unmyelinated nerve fibres

C

Both A and B

D

None of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

There are two types of axons, namely, myelinated and non-myelinated.
The myelinated nerve fibres are enveloped with Schwann cells, which form a myelin sheath around the axon.
The gaps between two adjacent myelin sheaths are called nodes of Ranvier.
Unmylinated nerve fibre is enclosed by a Schwann cell that does not form a myelin sheath around the axon.
