Microglia and Macroglia
In layman terms:
Micro Glia cells are a small percentage of the glia in general about 10-15% or so. They are free roving within the brain and spinal column and seem to have a function in repairing damage. Glia cells percentage increases when neural damage is present.
There are many sub-types of Macroglia cells. It would not be off to label the different types as cells comprising parts of the infrastructure of various defined objects in the brain and other neural tissue.
What else can I help you with?
What types of cells are involved in receiving and processing information?
Neuron is that cells that receiving and process information. This is also known as the nerve cell.
Chemical messenger released from the neuron that are involved in all types of behavior activity?
neurotransmitter
What are oligodendrocyte dominant organelles?
they are two types of glia cells. oligodendrocytes are responsible for the myelination of neurons in the central nervous system. swan cells perform the same function but in the peripheral nervous system.
What is the PNS glial cell that surrounds neuron cell bodies in ganglia?
In this case it is satellite cell. In the PNS system there are only two types of cells which are in the neural structures outside the CNS, Schwann Cells and Satellite cells. The Satellite cells surround neuron cell bodies in ganglia.
What is the 3 types of neuron?
one type of neuron is the motor neuron
What type of neuron is in the nervous system?
There are 3 types, the motor neuron, the sensory neuron, and the interneuron
What types of cells are involved in destroying viruses that invade the human body?
interferons
What types of cells must be involved for a mutation to be passed on to the organisms offspring?
genes
Which group of stem cells produce neurons?
Neural stem cells produce neurons. These cells are found in the central nervous system and have the ability to differentiate into different types of neurons.
What types of nervous cells are in the spinal nodes?
The perikaryon (cell body) is the neuron central part, to other neurons or directly to muscles or glands. These sheaths are composed of cell membranes from Schwann cells.
What is the neurons of the nervous system?
There are 3 types, the motor neuron, the sensory neuron, and the interneuron
What are the two types of cells in softwood?
The two types of cells in softwood are tracheids and parenchyma cells. Tracheids are responsible for water conduction and support, while parenchyma cells are involved in storage and other metabolic functions.
