_______________ produce the myelin sheath insulating neuronal axons.

_______________ produce the myelin sheath insulating neuronal axons. Correct Answer Oligodendrocytes

Oligodendrocytes are a kind of huge glial cell found in the focal sensory system. Oligodendrocytes produce the myelin sheath protecting neuronal axons (undifferentiated from Schwann cells in the fringe sensory system), in spite of the fact that some oligodendrocytes (called satellite oligodendrocytes) are not engaged with myelination.
