What else can I help you with?
Name the PNS glial cell that surrounds dorsal root ganglion neurons?
The PNS glial cell that surrounds dorsal root ganglion neurons is called satellite glial cells. They provide structural support and regulate the microenvironment around the neuron cell bodies in the ganglia.
What specific cell membrane component is responsible for creating a physical barrier designed to protect the cell organelles?
The phospholipid bilayer is the specific cell membrane component responsible for creating a physical barrier that protects cell organelles. It consists of a double layer of phospholipid molecules that provides structural support and regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
What type of glial cell accumulates within the brain region after a stroke?
Microglia
What is the structure that nurishes and maintains the entire neuron?
The structure responsible for nourishing and maintaining the entire neuron is called the glial cells, specifically astrocytes. Astrocytes provide support for neurons by regulating the surrounding environment, supplying nutrients, and helping with neurotransmitter recycling. They also play a role in repairing damage to neurons and forming the blood-brain barrier.
What is a schwan cell?
It's a glial cell which is wrapped around the axonic body of a neuron of the peripheral nervous system.
The neuroglia glial cell that helps main bloodbrain barries is?
Astrocytes.
Which of these is not a type of epithelial cell Glial Squamous Columnar or Cuboidal?
Glial cells are not a type of epithelial cell. Glial cells are a type of support cell in the nervous system, while squamous, columnar, and cuboidal cells are types of epithelial cells that line surfaces and cavities in the body.
Is an ependymal cell a glial cell?
Yes. Glial cells are cells that "help and support" the neurons in various ways. Astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, ependymal cells (important for CSF) ect.. are all glial cells (search "glial cell" on wikipedia for more).
Which organelle is responsible for a barrier allowing only certain things in and out of the cell?
Cell membrane
Which is responsible for providing a barrier allowing only certain things in and out of the cell?
Cell membrane
Is glial cell are responsible for nourishing and helping to repair neurons?
Yes, glial cells are responsible for nourishing neurons and providing support to help repair and maintain them. They also play a role in clearing debris and waste products from the brain. Glial cells are essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system.
Name the PNS glial cell that surrounds dorsal root ganglion neurons?
The PNS glial cell that surrounds dorsal root ganglion neurons is called satellite glial cells. They provide structural support and regulate the microenvironment around the neuron cell bodies in the ganglia.
What cell type is not a supporting cell or glial cell of the nervous system?
association neurons
What specific cell membrane component is responsible for creating a physical barrier designed to protect the cell organelles?
The phospholipid bilayer is the specific cell membrane component responsible for creating a physical barrier that protects cell organelles. It consists of a double layer of phospholipid molecules that provides structural support and regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
Malignant brain tumor of immature glial cells?
A glioblastoma (glio=glial cells, -blast=immature cell, oma=tumor, mass)
What type of glial cell accumulates within the brain region after a stroke?
Microglia
