What is the role of myelin in neurons?

To change the direction that Na+ and K+ move through ion
channels during the action potential.

To increase the speed that action potentials travel down the
neuron.

To prevent the neuron from generating action potentials.

To cause multiple sclerosis when present and intact, as it
blocks action potential movement and must be removed by the immune
system.
