What cell in the human nervous system whose primary function is to provide insulation and structure for neurons on which they may develop and work?
Glial cell.
Is mitochondria a function or a structure?
Mitochondria is a structure used to provide energy for the various functions of the human body, so it is a structure.
What are the cell that forms nervous tissue called?
neurons (which trasmit impulses) and glial cells which provide support and nutrition for the neurons.
Concerning cells structure determines?
Cells provide structure, stability, and energy. A cell also determines the sex of the concerning child because they contain genetic material. Therefore, concerning cell structure determine the function.
What do proteins provide for the cell?
Cells are structural and functional units of living organisms therefore they make the structure of living organisms and they also tells the body that how to function. Azhar Khan azhar_saeed39@yahoo.com
What cell in the human nervous system whose primary function is to provide insulation and structure for neurons on which they may develop and work?
Glial cell.
What is the function of neuroglial cells in nervous tissue?
Glial cells provide protection and support for the neurons. This is why they are called "the supporting cells" of the nervous system. They act as insulation and provide structure to surrounding neurons. Some protect the neurons from disease. Some can provide the insulation (white matter) along their axons, through differing mechanisms depending on the types. Astrocytes help regulate chemical environment and blood flow, schwann cells provide myelin sheaths (insulation) in the PNS, oligodendrocytes provide myelin sheaths in the CNS, and microglia act similarly to certain white blood cells.
What is the primary function of proteins in the diet?

astrocytes
What are the cells of the nervous system that function to protect provide nourishment and support for neural tissues are?
Neurons
What is the sensory function of flour?
The sensory function of flour is to provide a solid textture for the product and provide structure for the food.
What is the function of a bat structure?
The function of a bat structure is to provide a home or a location for bats to roost. The structure can be as simple as a wooden box attached to a tree.
Is mitochondria a function or a structure?
Mitochondria is a structure used to provide energy for the various functions of the human body, so it is a structure.
How does the structure of a bone cell relate to its function?
The structure of a bone cell will directly relate to its function. For instance, in the lamellae, there is collagen which will provide the tensile strength to the bones.
True or false. one function of protein is able to provide insulation?
false i think but you might want to double check
What is the function of the leaf in plant?
The function of a plant leaf is to provide a structure in which chloroplasts can be exposed to sunlight so that they can perform photosynthesis.
Plant cell walls provide structure for the plants. What performs this function in animals?
Skeleton.
