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?
The cells in the human nervous system that provide insulation and structure for neurons are called glial cells, specifically oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system. These cells produce myelin, a fatty substance that wraps around the axons of neurons to insulate and support their function by speeding up the transmission of nerve impulses.
What is the nervous system of a seahorse?
The nervous system of a seahorse consists of a central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and a peripheral nervous system (nerves that connect the central nervous system to the rest of the body). Seahorses have a relatively simple nervous system compared to other vertebrates, but it allows them to perform essential functions such as swimming, hunting, and reproduction.
How are epidermal cell designed to perform protective function?
The epidermal cell have cuticle (in plants) or chiten (in animals) on their outer tangential walls to perform protective function.
What nervous cell is 90 percent of the nervous system?
The neuron is the nervous cell that makes up about 90 percent of the nervous system. Neurons are the basic building blocks of the nervous system and are responsible for transmitting electrical and chemical signals throughout the body.
What represents a correct sequence of levels within the hierarchy of life?
These are the choices, it wouldn't let me put it in the main question. a. brain, spinal cord, organ system, nerve cell nervous tissue b. organ system, population of cells, nervous tissue, brain c. organism, organ system, tissue cell, organ d. nervous system, brain, nervous tissue, nerve cell e. organ system, tissue, molecule, cell
What is the structure and function unit of the nervous system?
The structural and functional unit of the nervous system is the neuron cell.
What is the function of the cell body of the nervous system?
the impulses are brought to the cell body from whre its carried by the axon to the synapse

What is a cell of the nervous system?
A Neuron.
Is the schwann cell a plant cell?
No, Schwann cells are a type of glial cell found in the nervous system of animals, including humans. They play a role in supporting and protecting neurons. Plant cells, on the other hand, are the basic unit of plant structure and function.
What is the basic cell of the nervous system?
Neurone or nerve cell
How are epidermal cell designed to perform protective function?
The epidermal cell have cuticle (in plants) or chiten (in animals) on their outer tangential walls to perform protective function.
What is the difference between a sensory neuron and a motor neuron?
motor neuron=A neuron that conveys impulses from the central nervous system to a muscle, gland, or other effector tissue. sensory neuron= nerves that take in information from either the outside or from within the body.Sensory neurons receive impulses from your eyes, ears, tongue, nose and skin.Motor areas control your muscle during movement.andA sensory neuron is a nerve cell that transmits impulses to the central nervous system (spinal cord or brain). It is information such as taste, touch, hot, cold, sound, sight or pain. It's cell body is located just outside the central nervous system and has a very short axon which leads into the nervous system. A motor neuron is a nerve cell that transmits direction to muscles and organs from the central nervous system to perform some function. The motor neurones cell body is located in the central nervous system and has a long axon (longest in body is around 1m) This is how these two are different.hop
What is the function of a dendrite in the nervous system?
Dendrites are extensions of a neuron that receive signals from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body. They play a crucial role in allowing neurons to communicate with each other and process information in the nervous system.
The basic cell of the nervous system?
neuron
What is the supportive cell of the nervous system?
glia.
