complete solution
glial cell that defends the body against pathogens is the
microglial cell
glial cell that myelinated and insulates axons in the peripheral nervous system is
the
neurolemmocyte
glial cell that protects neuron cell bodies located with ganglia is the
satellite cell
the glial cell that helps to circulate cerebrospinal fluid is the
ependymal cell
the glial cell that myelinated and insulates axons within the CNS is the
oligodendrocyte
the glial cell
*with the responsibility of occupying the space left by dead or dying neurons
*helps to form the blood brain barrier,
*provides structural support and organization to the CNS,
*has perivascular feet that wrap around capillaries in the CNS
*is the most abundant in the CNS
astrocyte
glial cells differ from neurons in that they
are small and capable of mitosis
What do all glial cells have in common?
assist neurons in their respective functions
What is a nerve?
a cable like bundle of parallel axons
portion of the nervous system that conducts impulses from the skin, joints,
skeletal muscles, and special senses is the __ division
somatic sensory
portion of the nervous system that has voluntary control over skeletal muscles is
the __ division
somatic motor
somatic motor
a neuron conducting an impulse from the CNS to the detrusor muscle of the
urinary bladder would be classified as a(n) ___ neuron
autonomic motor
a neuron conducting an impulse from the stomach wall to the CNS would be
classified as a(n) neuron
visceral sensory
a mixed nerve refers to one that contains both
sensory and motor neurons
most crucial factor determining the resting potential of a neuron is the diffusion
of
potassium out of the cell through leak channels
