The cells involved in most nervous system tumors are called?
The cells involved in most nervous system tumors are called neuroglia (glial cells). These cells provide support and protection for neurons in the nervous system. In tumors, abnormal growth of neuroglial cells can lead to the formation of brain tumors such as gliomas.
What are the two systems of the body involved in the indirect communication of cells?
The endocrine system and the nervous system are the two systems of the body involved in the indirect communication of cells. The endocrine system releases hormones into the bloodstream to target distant cells, while the nervous system uses neurotransmitters to send signals across synapses to adjacent 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 does 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 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 is the medical term meaning a tumor that originates from the support tissue of the central nervous system?
The medical term for a tumor that originates from the support tissue of the central nervous system is "glioma." Gliomas are a type of brain tumor that develop from glial cells, which are cells that support the function of neurons in the brain. These tumors can be malignant or benign.
Is connective tissue part of the nervous system?
Connective tissue is not considered part of the nervous system. The nervous system is composed of specialized cells called neurons, which transmit electrical signals. Connective tissue provides support and structure to the body, including organs and nerves, but it is not directly involved in transmitting nerve impulses.
What are groups of nerve cells that control the nervous system?
Groups of nerve cells that control the nervous system are called nuclei in the central nervous system and ganglia in the peripheral nervous system. These clusters of nerve cells work together to regulate various functions such as movement, sensation, and organ functions.
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
