    Solution

    Smooth muscles are not a part of nerves. Nerves are composed of axons, Schwann cells, and connective tissues, which support and protect the nerve fibers. Information Booster:            

    1. Axons transmit nerve impulses.
    2. Schwann cells form the myelin sheath in the peripheral nervous system.
    3. Connective tissues form the epineurium, perineurium, and endoneurium.
