Phagocytic cells

Microglia are this of the immune system.

insulates axon

Myelin gives glossy appearance and does this.

neurolemmocytes

Myelination is completed by this in PNS.

propagation

Neurolemmocytes allows for faster action potential this.

Schwann cells

Neurolemmocytes are referred to as this.

neurilemmal

Neurolemmocytes form this.

myelin sheath

Neurolemmocytes surround PNS axons to form this.

ganglion

Satellite cells physically separate cell bodies in this from surrounding fluid.

blood

The blood-brain barrier strictly controls substances entering brain nervous tissue from this.

Myelination

This is a process by which part of an axon wrapped in myelin.

tumors

This is neoplasm from unregulated cell growth and sometimes occur in CNS.

myelination by neurolemmocytes

What is the bottom picture a diagram of?

perivascular feet

Astrocytes cause capillary walls and neurons ends are called this.

capillary walls

Astrocytes processes touching this and neurons.

blood-brain

Astrocytes receive help from this barrier.

neurilemma

Cytoplasm and nucleus pushed to the periphery and form this.

membrane

During myelination layers of plasma this forms the myelin sheath.

choroid plexus

Ependymal cells form this with nearby blood capillaries.

CNS and PNS

Glial cells are Non Excitable cells found in these.

smaller

Glial cells are ______ than neurons, but far outnumber neurons.

mitosis

Glial cells are capable of what process.

neural synapes

Glial cells are critical for normal function at this.

posterior root ganglion

The regulation change of satellite cells surround bodies of sensory neurons in a this.

Neurolemmocytes

These are Also known as Schwann cells.

Satellite cells

These are arranged around neuronal cell bodies in a ganglion.

undergo mitosis

Tumor tissues have capacity to do this.

protective membranes of CNS

Tumors from meninges have this or glial cells.

primary brain tumors

Tumors originating from the brain are this.

supporting tissues

Tumors typically originate in this.

wrap

During Myelination neurolemmocytes start to do this around axon.

layers

During Myelination the cytoplasm and plasma membrane begin to form this.

periphery

During myelination cytoplasm and nucleus pushed to this and form neurilemmal.

cerebrospinal fluid

Ependymal cells help produce this liquid that bathes external CNS and fills internal cavities.

Ependymal cells

Ependymal cells line internal cavities of brain and spinal cord.

cilia

Ependymal cells use this to help circulate CSF.

physically and nurish

Glial cells protect neurons this way and ________ them

nervous tissue

Glial cells provide physical scaffolding for this.

migrating neurons

Glial cells scaffold by helping guide what to their destination.

metastasizing

Gliomas may be relatively benign may be malignant, capable of this.

oligodendrocytes

Myelination is completed by this in the CNS.

nutrients and waste products

Satellite cells regulate the exchange of these.

Myelin

The Myelination process contains this which is an insulating covering around axon.

Gliomas

These are glial cell tumors.

Oligodendrocytes

These are large cells with slender extensions that insulate axons in a myelin sheath.

Microglia

These are small cells with slender branches, and also the smallest percentage of CNS glial cells.

Astrocytes

These are star-like shape from surface projections located in glial cells, and the most abundant glial cell in CNS.
