Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Schwann cells are a type of neuroglia that are found in the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS), where they form the myelin sheath around axons. The Central Nervous System (CNS) also contains myelin-forming cells called oligodendrocytes. Therefore, the relationship between Schwann cells and PNS is analogous to the relationship between oligodendrocytes and CNS.
