Solution

The correct option is A Medullated nerve fibre
Medullated nerve fiber is also known as myelinated nerve fiber. The myelinated nerve fibres are enveloped with Schwann cells, which form a myelin sheath around the axon. The gaps between two adjacent myelin sheaths are called nodes of Ranvier.
So, the correct answer is 'medullated nerve fibre.'
