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.

Â© A Dictionary of Biology 2004, originally published by Oxford University Press 2004. myelin sheath (medullary sheath) The layer of fatty material that surrounds and electrically insulates the axons of most vertebrate and some invertebrate neurons.The myelin sheath enables a more rapid transmission of nerve impulses (at speeds up to 120 mâs). It consists of layers of membrane derived from Schwann cells.yelin sheath. A Dictionary of Biology | 2004.
