DisplayPort connector. DisplayPort is a digital display interface developed by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). The interface is primarily used to connect a video source to a display device such as a computer monitor, though it can also be used to carry audio, USB, and other forms of data.
myelin sheath. n. The insulating envelope of myelin that surrounds the core of a nerve fiber or axon and that facilitates the transmission of nerve impulses, formed from the cell membrane of the Schwann cell in the peripheral nervous system and from oligodendroglia cells.Also called medullary sheath.. The insulating envelope of myelin that surrounds the core of a nerve fiber or axon and that facilitates the transmission of nerve impulses, formed from the cell membrane of the Schwann cell in the peripheral nervous system and from oligodendroglia cells. Also called medullary sheath.
Myelin is vital to the normal functioning of the nervous system. The nerve cell is made up of a cell body and a long, projecting nerve fibre called the axon that is responsible for the transmission of electrical impulses from the cell body to receiving neurons, glands and muscles.ll of the information that passes to and from the body is transmitted and coordinated quickly and simultaneously. This is achieved through nervous system tissue that acts much like electrical wiring. Myelin is a sheath-like material that forms an insulating and protective coating around nerve fibres.
