Question
The image contains handwritten text as follows: "Which cells insulate axons with myelin in the CNS? in the PNS?" **Explanation:** The question is about the types of cells responsible for myelinating axons in the nervous system. In the Central Nervous System (CNS), the cells that provide myelin insulation are called oligodendrocytes. In the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS), this role is performed by Schwann cells. Myelin is essential for the rapid transmission of electrical signals along the axons of neurons.
