What is the function of a Neuron ? How they reproduce ?
The produce impulses to transfer information
They don't they are amitotic
-
What do astrocytes , oligodentrites , ependymocytes , microglia , satelite cells , and Schwann cells ?
- astrocytes - blood supply for neurons
- Microglia - are phagocytic / reparative
- oligodentrites - produce myelin sheath for CNS
- Ependymal cells - epithelial lining of the brain , ventricles and central canal of spinal cord , and make CSF
- Schwann cells - myelination of the PNS
-
What is a neurolemna ?
It is the cell membrane of the Schwann cell
-
What are nodes of Ranvier ? What is there function ?
- The spaces between sheath cells.
- They increase the impulse speed
- Decrease energy of Na+/K+ pump
-
What is multiple sclerosis ?
It is the destruction of myelin sheath in the CNS.

What makes up a Neuron ?
- Nucleus
- Ribosomes
- Rough ER
- Mitochondria
- Neurofibrils
-
What do the dendrites of the neuron do ? Is it myelinated ?
- Bring depolarization toward the cell body.
- It is not myelinated
-
What makes up the Neuron processes ?
Dendrites and Axon
-
What does the Axon of the Neuron do ? Is it myelinated ?What is the axon "Hillock"
- It takes action potentials away from the body.
- It can be myelinated or not
- It is the connector for the axon to the neural body
-
