​​What is a Myelin Sheath? The myelin sheath is the protective, fatty coating surrounding your nerve fibers, similar to the protective insulation around electrical wires. This coating enables the electrical impulses between nerve cells to travel back and forth rapidly. When myelin becomes damaged, these electrical signals are interrupted and may even stop altogether. Myelin is created by specific types of glial cells. In the Central Nervous System (CNS), glial cells are oligodendrocytes; in the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS), they are Schwann cells. If you've ever noticed the jerky, sudden movements babies make, this is because their myelin sheaths aren't fully developed at birth. As they get older and the myelin matures and builds up, their movements become smoother and more controlled. This process continues through adulthood. Demyelination is the term used to describe the destruction of the myelin sheath, the protective covering surrounding nerve fibers. This damage causes nerve signals to slow down or stop, resulting in neurological impairment.

​​How dangerous is a falling Bullet shot in the Air? When a gun is shot in the air, the bullet travels straight up into the sky and it will keep moving up until the initial kinetic energy of the bullet is exhausted as a result of air resistance and gravity then it attains its maximum height. It is at that point that the bullet starts falling to the ground at a terminal velocity that is lower than the muzzle velocity when it left the barrel of the gun. When the bullet starts falling where it will land might be unpredictable because of the effect of air and wind on it, nevertheless, these falling bullets can injure people and kill people. It should be noted that when a gun is shot at an angle that is less than vertical, it is more dangerous when falling because the bullet maintains the angular ballistic trajectory and the chances of its engaging in a tumbling motion is less, which makes it travel at a speed that is higher than a bullet that is in a free fall. A falling bullet can reach a speed of more than 61 metres per second and a bullet that is travelling at a speed of 46 to 61 metres per second can penetrate the skin, if it goes faster than this it can penetrate the human skull. For instance, a pointed bullet moves slower when falling, however, it can still penetrate the human skin, whereas a hollow point bullet is much lethal and this is not because it is easy for it to penetrate the human skin but when they do they create more damage to the human skin.
