Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Myelination of neurons, particularly in areas of the brain associated with motor control, begins before a baby starts to crawl. This process is crucial for the efficient transmission of nerve impulses, which enables coordinated movements such as crawling. Myelination is not completed once physical movement begins but continues into adolescence and early adulthood, especially in areas of the brain involved in higher cognitive functions.
