Can you use headings in an MLA format paper?

ATOTers who are in the MLA know, can you use bold headings in the MLA format? I am used to writing AAA, APA format and I am not up to snuff on current MLA rules.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Divisions might help a reader better follow a discussion that extends for twenty-five written pages. Consistently using the same style of heading for each level informs the reader whether the upcoming topic is a subtopic of the previous discussion or another central issue. Select a form for each level of division (for example, you might write Level 1 centered, caps and lower case; Level 2 flush left, lower case only, etc.); use the same form for the same level your paper. Regardless of the system you choose, the title on the title page should conform to MLA standards.

It sounds like you can do whatever you want, as long as you are consistent.
