What connective tissue cover myelinated or unmyelinated axons?
The connective tissue that covers unmyelinated and myelinated axons is called endoneurium.
Axons and dendrites usually are found in cells of which tissue?
nervous tissue
What is the name of covering of axon?
Because this is tissue from the brain (CNS), it is an oligodendrocyte which wraps around axons of neurons in the CNS to form a fatty myelin sheath. If it were PNS axons in say spinal or cranial nerves, the answer would be be Schwann cells.
Which tissue is reinforced by white fibers only?
Myelinated axons in the central and peripheral nervous systems.
What are nerve axon tracks made of?
The axons of nerve cells are surrounded by myelin sheeths - a protective covering that allows for saltatory conduction down the axons, increasing speed and decreasing loss of signal. Axons make up the tissue known as "white matter."
What connective tissue cover myelinated or unmyelinated axons?
The connective tissue that covers unmyelinated and myelinated axons is called endoneurium.
Axons and dendrites usually are found in cells of which tissue?
nervous tissue
Which best describes the components of a nerve?
axons, blood vessels, connective tissue, Schwann cell.
Which bestdescribes thecomponents ofa nerve?
axons, blood vessels, connective tissue, Schwann cell.
What is the fatty tissue that covers axons and speeds up impulses as they travel from cell to cell?
That substance is called the myelin cell or myelin sheath.
What specific tissue makes up the corpus callosum?
Axons
What is the name of covering of axon?
Because this is tissue from the brain (CNS), it is an oligodendrocyte which wraps around axons of neurons in the CNS to form a fatty myelin sheath. If it were PNS axons in say spinal or cranial nerves, the answer would be be Schwann cells.
What body tissue transmits messages throughout the body?
The axons and dendrites.
Why is there fat coating around the dendrites and axons?
The fat coating around the dendrites and axons is to insulate them.
What is fat and white and wraps around the fastest axons?
The Myelin sheath is fat and white and wraps around the fastest axons.
Regions of CNS tissue that contain axons but not neuronal cell bodies are called?
White matter
Which tissue is reinforced by white fibers only?
Myelinated axons in the central and peripheral nervous systems.
