_______ Communicate with Each Other and Carry Out Major Regulatory

Question

_______ communicate with each other and carry out major regulatory functions.
A) Myelin sheaths
B) Glial cells
C) Cell bodies
D) Axons

Accepted Answer

Glial cells are the supportive cells in the nervous system that communicate with each other and carry out major regulatory functions such as providing nutrients and oxygen to neurons, maintaining the chemical environment, and protecting the neurons from damage. Myelin sheaths are insulating covers around axons, cell bodies contain the nucleus and other organelles of the neuron, and axons transmit signals from the cell body to other neurons or muscles.
