What is the function of neuroglial cells in nervous tissue?
Glial cells provide protection and support for the neurons. This is why they are called "the supporting cells" of the nervous system. They act as insulation and provide structure to surrounding neurons. Some protect the neurons from disease. Some can provide the insulation (white matter) along their axons, through differing mechanisms depending on the types. Astrocytes help regulate chemical environment and blood flow, schwann cells provide myelin sheaths (insulation) in the PNS, oligodendrocytes provide myelin sheaths in the CNS, and microglia act similarly to certain white blood cells.
What Mirror neurons provide a biological basis?
obervational learning
What are accessory cells within nervous tissue that provide support to the neurons?
Glial cells, sometimes called neuroglia or simply glia are non-neuronal cells that maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for the brain's neurons.
The cytoplasmic extensions that provide the main receptive surfaces for neurons are what?
dendrites
What are two major types of cells that form nervous tissue?
First is the neuroglia, function is to support and protect the cells of the nervous system. Second is neurons, which are responsible for conducting nerve impulses from one part of the body to another.
What cell main function is to provide insulation and structure for neurons?
myelin sheath
What are the cells of the nervous system that function to protect provide nourishment and support for neural tissues are?
Neurons
What the function of mitocondria?
Mitochondria provide energy to cells and provide the location for the production of ATP.
What is the function of the mitocondria?
Mitochondria provide energy to cells and provide the location for the production of ATP.
What cell in the human nervous system whose primary function is to provide insulation and structure for neurons on which they may develop and work?
Glial cell.
What are the cell that forms nervous tissue called?
neurons (which trasmit impulses) and glial cells which provide support and nutrition for the neurons.
What is functional difference between neurons and glial?
Neurons are the message senders and receivers (when you think of brain cells) and the glial cells are important for support; they maintain ions levels and provide structural support for neurons.
What is the function of the sunlight?
The function of sunlight is to provide heat and light into the earth and this is what defines day and night. Sunlight is also useful to the ecosystem in that it is used in production of food by the plants.

What is a function of dendrites?
They are the main receptive of input regions. They provide an enormous surface area for receiving signals from other neurons. in the brain it collects information. Dendrites give stability to microstructures.
Mirror neurons provide a biological basis for?
observational learning
What Mirror neurons provide a biological basis?
obervational learning
