What is the difference between neurons and neuroglia?
Neurons conduct electrical impulses in the brain. Neuroglia are cells that support the neurons. These cells undergo mitosis where neurons do not. Brain tumors are formed from neuroglia cells because they mitosis.
What is Nerve Cells neurons made of?
neurons and neuroglia
What are the cells in the nervous system?
neurons and neuroglia
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
Are Neurons are mitotic and therefore are responsible for most brain neoplasms.?
False
What is able to divide neurons or neuroglia?
Neuroglia
Cell type found in nervous tissue?
There two types of cells found in nervous tissue. These two types of cells include: neurons and neuroglial cells.
What are accessory cells within nervous tissue that provide support to the neurons?
Glial cells, sometimes called neuroglia or simply glia are non-neuronal cells that maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for the brain's neurons.
Do neurons or neuroglia release neurotransmitters?
No
What is the function of a neuroglia?
Neuroglia are helper cells in the nervous system. They produce products that help support and protect the neurons so they can do their work transmitting impulses, also called action potentials.
What cells provide nourishment and protection for the neurons?
Neuroglial cells support and protect the neurons in the central nervous system.
Name the two types of nervous tissue?
Neurons and neuroglia the neuron known as the functional unit is the actual nerve cell. It transmits the impulses of the nervous system.. A neuron consists of three basic parts: a cell body, one axon, and one or more dendrites..
