Nervous tissue
Nerve cells (neurons) of the CNS (i.e. the brain).
Glia cells that brace and anchor neurons to nutrient lines are ASTROCYTES
Neurons and glia
The two types of cells in the CNS are neurons and glia. There are many types of glia, including oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and microglia, each with different functions. In general, glia support neuronal function.
Neurons and glia cells
Glia. Its a glue that connects one neuron to another.
The main cell type found in nervous tissue is the neuron. Neurons are responsible for transmitting electrical signals within the nervous system and are specialized for communication through both electrical and chemical signals.
Glial cells are not classified as connective tissue; instead, they are a type of nervous tissue. They support and protect neurons in the nervous system, playing crucial roles in maintaining homeostasis, forming myelin, and providing support and protection for neurons. While they share some functions with connective tissue, such as structural support, they belong to a distinct category of cells specific to the nervous system.
Most disorders of nervous system cell involve glia rather than neurons. Multiple sclerosis (MS) one ot the mylein disorders, is a good example of this principle.
Neurons are Nervous Tissue.
The CF that refers to neuroglial tissue is "glia" or "gli/o." Neuroglial tissue, or glial cells, provides support, protection, and nutrition to neurons in the nervous system. Glial cells play crucial roles in maintaining homeostasis, forming myelin, and facilitating signal transmission in the nervous system.
Schwann cells are glia that myelinate the neurons of the Peripheral Nervous System
