Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

False.

In a myelinated fiber, the initial segment of the axon, which is unmyelinated, has voltage-regulated channels that generate action potentials. The myelin sheath insulates the axon and increases the speed of conduction, but it does not have voltage-regulated channels.
