    The Myelin sheath definitely influences the speed of the information transmission in the Axon, namely it allows of a faster transmission, therefore the correct answer is:

    Impulse transmission would be faster in the axon with myelin.

    Myelin functions as an insulator - very much like the insulation in the electric cables which also make the transmission faster.
