  1. myelinated nerve fiber

    A myelinated nerve fiber refers to a nerve fiber that is wrapped with a layer of insulation, known as myelin sheath, which allows electrical impulses to transmit quickly along the nerve cells. Myelin consists of proteins and fatty substances, and it is this sheath that gives the fiber its whitish color. It greatly increases the speed and efficiency of communication between the brain and body.
