What cells are involved in most nervous system tumors?
the cells involved in most nervous system tumors are called
The cells involved in most nervous system tumors are called?
Glial cells.
What cells make up the mylin sheath?
There are two cells that are involved in the myelin sheath. One type is found in the central nervous system (CNS) and the other is in the peripheral nervous system (PNS).These are the oligodendrocytes (CNS) and Schwann cells (PNS).
What kind of cells are found in the nervous system?
The nervous system is made of these kinds of cells... -smooth muscle cells -nerve cells
What are the two systems of the body involved in the indirect communication of cells?
endocrine (slow chemical messages, transported in the blood) or nervous (extremley fast electical messages transported via neurones)
What the peripheral system do?
Peripheral System is a division of the Nervous System. They have 2 types of cells. The sensory nervous cells carry information to the central nervous system; and the motor nervous cells carry information from the central nervous system. The Peripheral System is also divided into the somatic nervous system (controls the voluntary muscles) and the automatic nervous system (controls involuntary muscles).
What does the peripheral system do?
Peripheral System is a division of the Nervous System. They have 2 types of cells.

The Peripheral System is also divided into the somatic nervous system (controls the voluntary muscles) and the automatic nervous system (controls involuntary muscles).
Why can the peripheral nervous system heal but the central nervous system can't?
the schwann cells (supportive cells) in the peripheral nervous system allow the neurons to regenerate, while the supportive cells in the central nervous system (oligodendrocytes and astrocytes) prevent neuron regeneration.
The cells that transmit nerve impluses in the nervous system are?
The cells that transmit nerve impluses in the nervous system are neurons.
What are groups of nerve cells that control the nervous system?
Central Nervous System
What forms myelin sheath?
The glial cells: oligodendrocytes for central nervous system and schwann cells for peripheral nervous system.
What nervous system cells act as phagocytes within the central nervous system?
neuroblasts
