What type of cells is the brain made up of?
neurons or neuroglial cells
What cells provide nourishment and protection for the neurons?
Neuroglial cells support and protect the neurons in the central nervous system.
Are nerve cells are also called neurotics?
A nerve cell cannot also be called a neuroglial cell. A neuroglial cell is a cell that has a primary function of supporting neurons.
ARE Neuroglial cells larger than neurons?
Actually not, much smaller, in fact.
What are the type of Cells of neural tissue that support the tissue called?
Nervous tissue is composed of neurons and supporting cells called neuroglial. The neuroglial are unspecialized cells and are able to perform supporting functions unlike the neurons which are used in key functions.
What is neuroglial cells that form the fatty myelin sheath on the neurons of the brain and spinal cord called?
Schwann cells (PNS)
This muscle type has interlocking cells for more efficient contraction?
neuroglial
List two jobs that neuroglial cells perform?
They maintain homeostasis and provide support and protection to the brain's neurons.
What are neuroglial cells?
The most abundant cells and are responsible for protecting and supporting the neurons in transmitting cognitive/ sensory information, however do not actually conduct electrical impulses themselves.
What is the basic structural unit of the nervous is the?
Neurons are the basic structural unit of nervous system.But there are other cells called as neuroglial cells (comprise 50% of the total nervous system along with nerve cells) which are also the structural unit of nervous system.Neurons on the other hand are functional unit too but neuroglial cells are not.
Which cells that do not reproduce?
Cardiac muscle, neurons.
Cell type found in nervous tissue?
