Edexcel A-Level Biology A2 8.1 Neurone Structure and Function Questions question 1

[Maximum number: 1]

Many predatory animals produce toxins to disable their prey. Some of these toxins inhibit nervous communication.

Nerve impulses are transmitted along axons. Some axons are myelinated.

Which type of cell produces myelin?

A

neurone

B

rod cell

C

Schwann cell

D

lymphocyte
