A biopsy of infected or injured tissue from the CNS will most likely show an elevated number of ________. A) ependymal cells- line central cavities of brain and spinal cord, moves CSF via cilia B) oligodendrocytes- myelin sheath C) satellite cells- surround cell body of PNS neuron. Similar to astrocytes in CNS. D) microglia- monitor health of neurons, microglia migrate to damaged or infected, special type of macrophage. E) interneurons

Microglia - monitor health of neurons ...
