What are the spinal and cranial nerves ganglia?
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) original answer by btbchris
The specialized cells of the PNS that are surrounded by a basement membrane that is capable of forming a regeneration tube through which a severed peripheral axon can regrow are the?
Schwann cells are the specialized cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that are capable of forming a regeneration tube to guide a severed peripheral axon during the process of regeneration. This process allows for potential regrowth and repair of damaged nerves in the PNS.
How would you define peripheral nervous system?
The peripheral sytem is the outer layering of the nervous system.It is attached to all sorts of nerves and also the spinal cord The peripheral nervous system is the part of the nervous system that controls the limbs. The peripheral nervous system contains nerves and ganglia outside of the brain and spinal cord.
All nervous tissue outside of the central nervous system is part of this nervous system?
The peripheral nervous system is made up of all the nerves outside the central nervous system.
What are the two categories of nerves belonging to the peripheral nervous system?
The peripheral nervous system is the nervous system outside of the brain and spinal cord. The two categories belonging to the peripheral nervous system are nerves and ganglia.
Small groups of nerves outside the brain and spinal cord?
Peripheral nerves.
What is a bundle of nerves that links the peripheral nervous system to the brain?
The spinal cord is a bundle of nerves that links the peripheral nervous system to the brain
What cell produces the myelin in peripheral nerves?
Schwann cells produce myelin in peripheral nerves. Schwann cells wrap around the axon of a neuron to form the myelin sheath, which helps to insulate and speed up the conduction of nerve impulses.
What is the function of the schwann cells?
Schwann cells are part of the peripheral nervous system (PNS.) They have two major functions, they produce the myelin sheath which covers the schwan cell, which helps to repair and regenerate nerves that have been damaged. In addition, they help the nerve impulse to be passed on quicker so that the brain can send a impulse to ones bones and muscles.
What are the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord?
The peripheral nervous system contains all the nerves in the body that lie outside of the spinal cord and brain.They communicate with the central nervous system to make sure our body parts, such as our fingers, can send signals to the central nervous system for processing in our brains.
The cranial and spinal nerves form what nervous system?
the peripheral nervous system
Made up of nerves that connect the brain and spinal cord to other parts of the body?
That would be the peripheral nervous system.
