The nerve cells are ensheathed in the cns by myelin which is a dielectric material. The myelin layer extends only upto the axon of a neuron. It is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system.

Specialized supporting cells in the CNS?
The neuroglia ("nerve glue"), or glial cells, which in the CNS include Astrocytes, Ependymal cells, Microglia, and Oligodendrocytes.
Another name for a bundle of nerve fibers is what?
It is called a dendrite.~
Function of the nerve cell?
It sends out messages from one to the other part of your body.A nerve cell is also called a neuron. Its function is to transmit information between the central nervous system (CNS) & the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Motor neurons transmit from the CNS to the PNS Sensory neurons transmit from the PNS to the CNS. There is another kind called an interneuron, which transmits information between neurons in the CNS.
Collection of cell bodies found outside the cns?
neurons is the incorrect answer. The correct answer is ganglia.
What nerve carries autonomic signals away from the cns is classified as?
Visceral efferent
Where are association nerve cells located?
in your chast
Specialized supporting cells in the CNS?

What tissue is connected and supported by glia cells?
Nerve cells (neurons) of the CNS (i.e. the brain).
What are hair cells and what is their relationship to the auditory nerve?
the out hair cells (OHC)push against the tectorial membrane in response to efferent innervation from the CNS the seventh cranial nerve it's the inner hair cells (IHC) that provide the sense of hearing afferent innervation to the CNS the eighth cranial nerve
What is a bundle of nerve processes inside the CNS?
The usual name for a bundle of nerve processes within the CNS is "tract" or "fasciculus"
Human Nerve Cells?
Nerve cells specialized on transmitting messages from one part of the body to another. Motor neurons send information away from the central nervous system (CNS). Sensory neurons send information toward the CNS. Inter-neurons send information between motor and sensory neurons.
Which type of glial cells produces the myelin sheaths that insulate axons or nerve fibers in the central nervous system (CNS)?
myelin sheath
Where does the spinal nerve take nerve impulses?
the spinal nerve sends nerve impulses away from the CNS

Where are association nerve cells located in body?
spinal cord and brian
What The two types of cells of the nervous system are?
Neurons or the nerve cells are the basic unit of nervous system. Based on their function (as in whether they transmit impulse from the CNS or to the CNS) neurons are classified as sensory neurons (carry impulses to the CNS), motor neurons (carry impulses from the CNS to the target organ) and mixed neurons which perform both the functions. The neurons can also be classified based on the number of associated axons or even presence or absences of axons.
