Examples of neuroglial cell?
Another name for neuroglial cell is glia cells, or supporting cells. Here are some examples. There are three types of glial cells in the mature central nervous system: astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and microglial.The supporting cells of the Peripheral Nervous System are known as Schwann Cells.
What cell accounts roughly half of the volume of the nervous system?
Neuroglia
What is a schwan cell?
It's a glial cell which is wrapped around the axonic body of a neuron of the peripheral nervous system.
Is the schwann cell a plant cell?
No--a schwann cell is a type of glial cell, a cell that functions to help and support neurons in a nervous system.
Nervous tissue consists mainly of neurons and collagen fibers?
Nervous tissue consists mainly of nerve cells and glial cells. Glial cells are the most abundant cell types in the central nervous system.
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 a schwann cell?
A schwann cell are supporting cells of the peripheral nervous system, they wrap themselves around nerve axons.
Where in the body would you find a glial cell?
Every where there isn't a place in your body where you wont find nerve cells.

Glial is not a type of epithelial cell.
What are brains made of?
The primary cell in the brain is the neuron. There are also many supporting cells, such as astrocytes, glial cells and the like.
What are the cell that forms nervous tissue called?
neurons (which trasmit impulses) and glial cells which provide support and nutrition for the neurons.
Is an ependymal cell a glial cell?
Yes. Glial cells are cells that "help and support" the neurons in various ways. Astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, ependymal cells (important for CSF) ect.. are all glial cells (search "glial cell" on wikipedia for more).
