  • Astrocryte regulates ion
  • Microglial cell defends the neurons against materials.
  • Ependymal cell lined cavities
  • Oligodendrocyte wraps and insulates axon
  • Sattelite cell surrounds the neurons
  • Schwaan cell surrounds and insulates axon
  • Nervous system group of tissue composed of high specialized cells
  • Nervous tissue densely pack of cell
  • Glial Cell
    • surrounds and protects gets nutrition
    • for insulation (regulation of temperature)
    • helps for the signal transmission
    • jacket of neuron
  • Neurons
    • response to stimuli
    • active conducting elements
  • PERIKARYON
    • consist of a cell body
    • contain single nucleus
    • process transmitting impulse to and from the cells body
  • Neuroglia supporting elements
  • Dendrites Group of short, unsheated processes arrange like branches of tree that transmit
  • Axon Single, elongated sheated process conducting impulses away from the cell body
  • Somatic efferent innervating somatic structures (skeletal muscles and skin) can control
  • Visceral Efferent involuntary structures ( smooth muscles, cardiac muscles and glands) cannot control
  • synapse connection between neurons
  • cell membrane inside (negative), outside (positive)
  • Action Potential sudden changes in the eletric charge in the membrane
  • Myelin Sheath - insulating material covering axons in central and peripheral nervous system, the thicker, the faster the passage of nerve impulse will be.
