A

Merocrine sweat glands

22
Q

  • Secretes earwax called cerumen
A

Ceruminous glands

23
Q

Function of osteoblasts

A
  • produce new bone matrix during ossification
  • synthesize and secrete osteoid
24
Q

Function of osteoclasts

A

-absorb and remove bone matrix

25
Q

Function of osteocytes

A
  • maintain the matrix
  • take part in bone repair
26
Q

  • Assist in producing, circulating, and monitoring cerebrospinal fluid
A

Ependymal cells

37
Q

1) maintain the blood-brain barrier,
2) provide structural support
3) regulate ion, nutrient, and dissolved gas concentrations
4) absorb and recycle neurotransmitters
5) form scar tissue after injury

A

Astrocytes

38
Q

Where are oligodendrocytes found and what do they do?

A
  • Found in the CNS
  • myelinate axons and provide structural framework
39
Q

A

Microglia

40
Q
  • surround all axons in PNS
  • responsible for myelination of peripheral axons
  • participate in repair process after injury
A
