- glia

20
Q

A
  • cell body with nucleus
  • dendrites
  • axon
21
Q

What are glial cela useful for?

A

They assist neurons by providing insulation, nutrients, replenishment.

22
Q

Signalling is done by 2 systems, what are they?
What is the response limited to?
What does the signal travel along?

A
  • endocrine (hormones)
    Limited to cells that have the receptor for the signals.
    Signal travels everywhere via bloodstream.
  • nervous (neurons)
    Limited to cells that connect by specialized junctions to an axon that transmits an impulse.
    Signal travels along axon to a specific location.
