Solution

The correct option is C By oligodendrocytes
Myelinogenesis is the process of sequential myelination or development of myelin sheaths around nerve fibres of the central nervous system. The principle function of oligodendrocytes is to provide support to axons and to produce the myelin sheath, which insulates axons. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
