B) the myelin sheath; maintain the resting potential in neurons
C) the myelin sheath; increases the speed of an action potential
D) neurotransmitters; conduct signals across synapses
E) meninges; provide neurotransmitters to neurons

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Schwann cells produce the myelin sheath around the axons of neurons in the peripheral nervous system, which significantly increases the speed of action potentials along the axon.
